<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The classic memoir that shocked, outraged, and ultimately changed the way America looked at the civil rights movement and the black experience.</b><br><b> </b><br><b>With a preface by Ishmael Reed - "As with Malcolm X, Cleaver's book is a spiritual autobiography. An odyssey of a soul in search of itself, groping toward a personal humanism which will give meaning to life."--<i>The Progressive</i></b> <p/>By turns shocking and lyrical, unblinking and raw, the searingly honest memoirs of Eldridge Cleaver are a testament to his unique place in American history. Cleaver writes in <i>Soul on Ice</i>, "I'm perfectly aware that I'm in prison, that I'm a Negro, that I've been a rapist, and that I have a Higher Uneducation." What Cleaver shows us, on the pages of this classic autobiography, is how much he was a man.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A collection of essays straight out of Dante's <b>Inferno</b>.
