Description
Is who we are really only skin deep? In this searing, remonstrative book,
Toni Morrison unravels race through the stories of those debased and
dehumanised because of it. A young black girl longing for the blue eyes of
white baby dolls spirals into inferiority and confusion. A friendship falls
apart over a disputed memory. An ex-slave is haunted by a lonely, rebukeful
ghost, bent on bringing their past home. Strange and unexpected, yet always
stirring, Morrison’s writing on race sinks us deep into the heart and mind
of our troubled humanity. Includes selections from the books Song of
Solomon, The Bluest Eye, Beloved by Toni Morrison VINTAGE MINIS: GREAT
