THE VOICE OF A NEW ERA NUMBER 1 IN SALES IN THE UNITED STATES CHOSEN ONE OF THE 100 PEOPLE WHO WILL BE MOST INFLUENTIAL IN THE FUTURE ACCORDING TO TIME MAGAZINE Foreword by Oprah Winfrey Before the gaze of a world overwhelmed after the invasion of the United States Capitol, Amanda Gorman took the floor after President Joe Biden. She was the youngest poet who recited at an investiture ceremony, as Robert Frost or Maya Angelou did before, and she captivated millions of people who saw in her the light of hope, and in the verses of The Hill We Ascend the Inauguration of a new era. African American raised by a single mother in a modest multicultural Los Angeles neighborhood, an advocate for the environment, racial equality and gender justice, Gorman has become the voice of the forgotten. With her vigorous and moving words - as Michelle Obama affirms - she reminds us of the power that each of us has to defend our democracy. Keep shining, Amanda! . Critics said ... Thank you, Amanda Gorman, for opening the door in this historic way. Elvira Sastre A star of literature and a symbol of rebellion. ... Anyone understands that the genre of the Capitol poem is difficult. ... The hill we are climbing has served its purpose: it has touched millions of Americans and has become a symbol for optimism in a wounded country. ... And even poetry, so celebrated in recent months, acquires with Gorman's success a renewed value of moral resistance, of strength in weakness. Luis Alemany, El Mundo A powerful speech that moved the Capitol and the entire world. ... A whole declaration of intentions, strength and talent. Benedetta Poletti, ELLE Director Everyone loves Amanda's hopeful and suffering new voice. In his writing ... the voice with the cascading beard of Walt Whitman resounds with forcefulness: vitalism, nonconformity, beauty, nature, regeneration, future ... Gorman knew how to agglutinate in his verses the new hope that much of the country - and from a world ravaged by Trump's hangover - needed. Jes︢s Ruiz Mantilla, El Pa̕s Amanda gave a master class: she faced power with the truth and embodied the transparent hope of a tired nation. She unmasked ourselves. And here is the best part: I'm sure there will be many more moments like this. Now the world knows the name of the poet. Lin-Manuel Miranda, TIME A poem with a beautiful rhythm for a special occasion that will live far beyond the time and space for which it was composed. Amanda Gorman recited it gracefully and her words will resonate throughout the world: today, tomorrow, and far into the future. Will Gompertz, BBC [Amanda] comes to show us our true selves, our human heritage, our heart. ... When her words flooded us, they healed our wounds and resuscitated our spirits. And our nation, wounded but whole, got down on its knees. Oprah Winfrey We need a new language of hope. Amanda Gorman is writing it. Hillary Clinton Amanda has a powerful mirror: everyone who looks into it looks better. ... And she embodies a future that sounds with a heartbeat, a beacon for young people reduced by precariousness and the pandemic that shortens her steps. Ah, that freshness, Amanda, able to combat the lingering smell of vinegar! Joana Bonet ..
