"When truth teller and careful writer bell hooks offers a book, I like to be standing at the bookshop when it opens." â??Maya Angelou

Renowned visionary bell hooks explored the meaning of love in American culture with the critically acclaimed bestseller All About Love: New Visions. She continued her national dialogue with the bestselling Salvation: Black People and Love. Now hooks culminates her triumphant trilogy of love with Communion: The Female Search for Love.

Intimate, revealing, provocative, Communion challenges every woman to courageously claim the search for love as the heroic journey we must all choose to be truly free. In her trademark commanding and lucid language, hooks explores the ways ideas about women and love were changed by the feminist movement, by women's full participation in the workforce, and by the culture of self-help, and reveals how women of all ages can bring love into every aspect of their lives, for all the years of their lives.

Communion is the heart-to-heart talk every woman â?? mother, daughter, friend, and lover â?? needs to h… (meer)

Insightful and inspiring critique on patriarchal customs surrounding love and self-love. ( )

the information regarding the patriarchical society was presented very well with illuminating descriptions. I was not always pleased with the repetitions, but the content was worth it. ( )

This is a good book for women frustrated with relationships, and who are searching for ways to be in loving relationships. ( )

hooks is not only an activist for change, she is an activist and a believer in the right to and power of love - and her recent trilogy on the subject explores this eloquently. when i was in california back in february, a friend recommended these to me, and i’m so glad. definitely these are some of the best and most progressive books i have read on defining, understanding, and looking for love within the patriarchal morass we often find ourselves in. love, she posits, is subverted by popular notions of love on television and in the movies - and it is a radical act to reclaim love, and to be open to it, and to live it. i found these books hopeful and moving and they made me realize my own rights to love free of coercion and violence, and that this is as worth a goal as any.

There is an eros present at every meeting, and this is also sacred. One only has to listen inwardly to the histories and resonances of the word we use for religious experience. In Sanskrit the word satsang, which translates into English as "meeting" means "godly gathering." In the English language the word common is linked through the word "communicate" to "communion." ...To exist in a state of communion is to be aware of the nature of existence. -Susan Griffin
