Love Audre Lorde's writting and enjoyed reading these poems have bookmarked my favourites to go back to over again

I stopped smoking when Audre Lorde died of cancer on November 17, 1992, the day Rebecca Walker turned 23. I had taken women's studies at the graduate level at my alma mater, that spring, and I began to read a lot of work by women authors, especially Alice Walker, who wrote, "My Daughter Smokes," an essay that got her own daughter to stop smoking cigarettes in her teens. I estimate I read that essay before Audre died. My favorite choreographer, Kenneth MacMillan, who also smoked, as Audre did, died of a sudden heart attack, while backstage reviving his ballet, "Mayerling," just three weeks prior. I only recently found out about Audre dying at that time, too, so I am getting her work to read, too.
