<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A powerfully written memoir by a black woman artist in search of meaning and grace in her family, work, and spiritual lives.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p> Estella Conwill Majozo has lead a life of creativity and leadership in the arts. A respected poet, teacher, and performance artist, Majozo writes eloquently about both the deep roots in family and community that have sustained her, and the conflicts and challenges that have confronted her, as they have many creative and self-aware African American women over the last half-century.</p><p> This memoir traces the paths Majozo has taken from the Little Africa section of segregated Louisville, through a difficult marriage and a Ph.D. at the University of Iowa, to New York, where Majozo has become a member of the hardy cultural community of Harlem. It is a testament to the importance of a life lived in pursuit of cultural heritage, spiritual growth, and personal integrity.</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><em>Come Out the Wilderness</em> is a soul-stirring, beautifully crafted litany of prose, interspersed with poetic phrases.<br>--<strong><em>The Courier-Journal</em> (Louisville, Kentucky)</strong><br><br><i>Come Out the Wilderness</i> is a soul-stirring, beautifully crafted litany of prose, interspersed with poetic phrases.<br>--<b><i>The Courier-Journal</i> (Louisville, Kentucky)</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>ESTELLA CONWILL MÁJOZO</b> is an associate professor of English at Hunter College, City University of New York, where she teaches creative writing and African-American literature.
