The past is a guide, not a prison. We must learn from it, but not be bound by it.

Morrison’s books are heavy but this was too much for me. I wasn’t prepared for this at all.

Captures the dreams, memories, conflicts, and complex interior lives of the citizens of a small, all-Black town as four young women are brutally attacked near the town during the 1970s

There were a lot of names to follow in this book. At times I had trouble following who was who...and I read The Known World.

Oof, this is not an easy read. While I found the plot somewhat hard to follow, Toni Morrison's writing style lighted a spark in me which makes me want to read more of her work. Her mind is exquisite and I am glad it will live on forever, even though an amazing woman unfortunately left us.
