Media Reviews
Wonderful... A triumph * New York Times *
Toni Morrison makes me believe in God. She makes me believe in a divine being, because luck and genetics don't seem to come close to explaining her * Guardian *
Deeply perceptive...Returns risk and mischief to the contemporary American novel * New York Times Book Review *
Toni Morrison's writing is a train that knows where it's going, fierce and fast-moving in narrative, lyrically showy in description * Sunday Times *
Toni Morrison has made herself into the D. H. Lawrence of the black psyche, transforming individuals into forces, idiosyncrasy into inevitability * New York Times *
