Singing, swinging, and celebrating as if it were Christmas Eve, by Maya Angelou

This book is the third part of the autobiographical novel of the American poetess (Maya Angelou), and it was published in 1976 as another literary journey that takes us to an important station in the life of the American poetess, which is the stage of self-building and trying to reconcile with oneself. In this book, (Maya) narrates to us the details of her struggle to support her young son, to build meaningful relationships, and to establish a successful career in the world of entertainment. (Maya) took us in the previous two parts to different areas we were not familiar with, and carried us through many psychological and social battles against racial discrimination, racial superiority, and attempts to overcome poverty and experiences of rising against oppression and humiliation, but this book will take us on different paths, especially since (Maya) decided to go on a journey to tour Europe in an attempt to discover the world and herself as well. This important part puts us face-to-face with many situations that made (Maya) change her name from (Margaret Johnson) to (Maya Angelou), situations that we can describe as stations that changed her life forever, and therefore, we must face this book with all amazement, because we will find these stations similar to many situations we have gone through in our personal lives, in some way, (Maya) takes us by the hand to help us discover ourselves.
