Book description
Signed Edition A glorious chronicle of a life like none other - enlightening, entertaining, surprising, empowering - and a testament to the world-changing power of Black motherhood. Tina Knowles, the mother of three iconic singer-songwriters Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, Solange Knowles, and bonus daughter Kelly Rowland, is known the world-over as a Matriarch with a capital M: a determined, self-possessed, self-aware, and wise woman who raised and inspired two of the great artists of our time. But this story is about so much more than that. This is a story about the wisdom that women pass down to each other, from mothers to daughters, across generations. Matriarch is a powerful reading experience, keepsake and gift of wisdom for readers everywhere - a poignant and impactful memoir that will feel as warm, honest, thoughtful, and aspirational as the author herself, filled with stories that highlight never-heard stories from a remarkable family's journey, along with a host of colourful characters and trailblazers along the way. This book will not only give readers a glimpse into fascinating personal stories, but will also share timely and urgent stories of resilience, humanity, and respect. As Ms. Knowles so eloquently puts it herself: 'I think when you value yourself and respect yourself, everything else just falls into place.'
