The late Toni Morrison was the first African American to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. A powerful writer, she wove stories depicting the largely overlooked Black experience in America and exploring the intersection of gender and race through the lives of Black women. Morrison's writing continues to move people and push readers to reassess their beliefs about what it means to be Black in America.
Synthesizing some 250 scholarly works about Morrison's writing, this book examines eight novels as well as the short story "Recitatif." They are analyzed for techniques used to deepen meaning and emotional weight, and reveal Morrison's mastery over prose.
David S. Goldstein is a teaching professor in the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences at the University of Washington Bothell, and former director of its Teaching and Learning Center. Shawnrece D. Campbell works at Texas A&M University – Corpus Christi. He lives in Corpus Christi.
