Yeah right, you and Bon Hiver? Give me a fucking break cheese head.

I'll stomp your bitchass.

>all these posts deleted for simply criticizing Angelou's work

isn't that what this board is for, literary criticism? can't we have an actual unfiltered discussion about Angelou here, and then the hugbox faggots can go post on Reddit or whatever?

I'm sure there's one or two /pol/ shitposters, but deleting all critical posts is just fucking sad, and smacks of the era not too long ago when threads on Evola, et al., were deleted on sight. Get it together.

On topic, I haven't read much Angelou. I had to read a few poems due to having an American substitute teacher once back in high shcool, and found them uniformly dull, uninspired and pandering. They did not encourage further exploration.

By all accounts, Angelou was popular in the US. That doesn't mean she was a good author or poet. From my experience, she seemed pretty fucking mediocre.
