Josephine Baker Fearless and Free recensie, review en informatie
- “This is Josephine Baker’s story in her own words… Her voice is very strong in this story, and she is the best kind of person to read about. She is very funny and witty, humble and kind, and extremely eccentric.” (Kwame Alexander, TODAY)
- “Baker skips across her life, never dwelling on hardship, with an imaginative joie de vivre that offers a real glimpse of her presence…. She was a beacon of joy and fellowship and her smile…reaches out to us across the years.” (Financial Times)
- “A riveting account of Baker’s life… confident and charismatic… In hearing her stream of consciousness thoughts and perspectives, the reader will come away with a sense that they have just read a diary of a dear friend who is modeling the path to being unapologetically themselves, leading a life of adventure and fulfillment. The reader is sure to be encouraged to follow Baker’s lead and dive headfirst into their own one-of-a-kind future, fearless and free.” (The New York Journal of Books)
