Jackie Kay’s biography of Bessie Smith was published by Faber in 2021
“Jackie Kay’s book on Bessie Smith: She has combined biographical information with a total understanding of who Bessie actually WAS … Biographies don’t usually bring the subject to life again. This one did. I finished the book then started it again immediately.”
