Críticas:
"[An] insightful essay anthology." --InTouch Magazine "As if you needed another reason to love Beyonc , this anthology of essays in appreciation of the superstar will give you at least 20 more. Chambers...weaves together voices of the famous, brilliant and thoughtful." --AMNewYork "A pop culture must-have in libraries that serve older teens and new adults." --School Library Journal "Reading this book feels...a lot like attending a sorority gathering when the sisters shout out their love, admiration, and respect for a polished performer who epitomizes the best of contemporary African American female culture and values." --New York Journal of Books "Actors, academics and critics unpack the impact of a megastar in a collection of essays edited by Chambers. The group meditation on one of the world's greatest living icons features pieces by writer-producer Lena Waithe, comedian Kid Fury and scholar Brittney Cooper and examines Beyonce as a paragon of black female power, the model she sets for what a modern performer should be and more." --Time "If Beyonc is your queen (as she should be), your bookshelf needs this collection of essays dedicated to the legendary lady." --HelloGiggles "Entertaining and illuminating, this essay collection will please readers no matter their Beyonc fan status level." --Publishers Weekly "With such a dynamic ensemble of opinions and reflections, the collection will be sweet reading not just for Beyonc 's superfans, but also for activists, feminists, and budding vocalists. An uplifting and resounding ovation." --Kirkus Reviews
Reseña del editor:
Beyonce. Her name conjures more than music, it has come to be synonymous with beauty, glamour, power, creativity, love, romance and sex appeal. Her performances are legendary, her album releases events. She is not even forty but she has already rewritten the Beyonce playbook more than half a dozen times. She is consistently provocative, political and surprising. As a solo artist, she has sold more than 100 million records. She has won 22 Grammys and is the most nominated women in the award's history. Her 2018 performance at Coachella wowed the world. The New York Times wrote: 'There's not likely to be a more meaningful, absorbing, forceful and radical performance by an American musician this year or any year soon.' Artist, business woman, mother, daughter, sister, wife, black feminist, Queen Bey is endlessly fascinating. Queen Bey will feature a diverse range of voices, from star academics to outspoken cultural critics to Hollywood and music stars.
