Summary
In this engaging and lively collection of conversational profiles, 28 powerful and individual voices reflect on what inspires, directs, infuriates, and sustains them. The writers featured range in age from thirty-two to ninety and represent a cross-section that encompasses differences in race, religion, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, and lifestyle. In addition to well-known authors, A Voice of One's Own introduces some less familiar writers of growing prominence whom readers will want to discover on their own.
