About this title: The fourteen essays and speeches collected in this work, several of them published for the first time, span almost a decade of this Black lesbian feminnist's work. Lorde is unflinching in her observations and is lucid and clarifying in her coverage of a range of essential topics.

"The first time I encountered this book, it was assigned for a college class. I remember standing in line to pay for my books, reading this one, and thinking to myself "This is the truest thing I have ever read."
What I mean by that is that Audre Lorde uses words as they are meant to be used -- to tell the truth. It's heartbreaking to me that she is so often quoted out of context. if I had a magic wand, I would stop that practice immediately.
This planet lost a truthteller when Audre Lorde died."
"Grenada. Black women and hatred. Interview with a white feminist. Interconnection of the oppressions. Lesbians raising sons. And holy FFF Uses of the Erotic: The Erotic as Power. Reading by Mary Mack. Blog by Renee from work. Sent to KF."
"Reading The Erotic as Power is like feeling blood fill up my veins and arteries and muscles. This book is life-giving and life-affirming even as it cautions, laments, and perturbs. This book rises to the level of Sacred Text."
