E-raamat: Let Love Have the Last Word: A Memoir

&;An insightful memoir that uncovers unique stories about matters of the heart.&; &;Essence

The inspiring New York Times bestseller from Common&;the Grammy Award, Academy Award, and Golden Globe&;winning musician, actor, and activist&;explores how love and mindfulness can build communities and allow you to take better control of your life through actions and words.

Common believes that the phrase &;let love have the last word&; is not just a declaration; it is a statement of purpose, a daily promise. Love is the most powerful force on the planet, and ultimately the way you love determines who you are and how you experience life.

Touching on God, self-love, partners, children, family, and community, Common explores the core tenets of love to help us understand what it means to receive and, most importantly, to give love. He moves from the personal&;writing about his daughter, to whom he wants to be a better father&;to the universal, where he observes that our society has become fractured under issues of race and politics. He knows there&;s no quick remedy for all of the hurt in the world, but love&;for yourself and for others&;is where the healing begins.

In his first public reveal, Common also shares a deeply personal experience of childhood molestation that he is now confronting&;and forgiving.

Courageous, insightful, brave, and characteristically authentic, Let Love Have the Last Word shares Common&;s own unique and personal stories of the people and experiences that have led to a greater understanding of love and all it has to offer. It is a powerful call to action for a new generation of open hearts and minds, one that is sure to resonate for years to come.
