  This is by far my favorite book by Mya Angelou and my favorite autobiography.

  espy's recommendation

  Angelou's great autobiography is one of the most frequently challenged books on the 20th Century. Angelou states that "Parents, schools and related organizations have argued that the book encourages deviant behavior because of its references to lesbianism, premarital sex, cohabitation, pornography and violence".[60] Often the best books are the most frequently banned.
