Morrison, Toni (1931-2019)

Beloved / Toni Morrison - New York : Alfred A. Knopf , c1987 - 273 p. : 25 cm

The story of the escaped slave Sethe and the past that literally and figuratively haunts her is rightfully still vivid, and, in Morrison's controlled reading, the words and images linger powerfully in our mind's eye. The novel was both well researched and imaginatively constructed to show the horrors and costs of both slavery and freedom for these characters who are by turns unforgettable, tragic, and mystical.
