Matriarch : a memoir / Tina Knowles with Kevin Carr-O'Leary.
"Tina Knowles, the mother of ... singer-songwriters Beyonce 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 some of the great artists of our time. But this story is about so much more than that. Matriarch begins with a precocious, if unruly, little girl growing up in 1950s Galveston, the youngest of seven. ... As the realities of race and the limitations of girlhood set in, she begins to dream of the world beyond. Her instincts and impulsive nature drive her far beyond the shores of Texas to discover the life awaiting her on the other side of childhood. That life's journey--through grief and tragedy, creative and romantic risks and turmoil, the nurturing of superstar offspring and of her own special gifts--is the ... story she shares with readers here"--Provided by publisher.
