"Morrison is more than the standard bearer of American literature. She is our greatest singer. And this book is perhaps her most important song." --The New York Times "Dazzlingly heady and deeply personal--a rumination on her literary career and artistic mission, which is to reveal and honor the aching beauty and unfolding drama of African American life." --O, The Oprah Magazine "A piercing and visionary analyst of history, society, literature, language, and, always, race. . . . The book explodes into pure brilliance." --The Boston Globe."This book is a must." --The Washington Post "Profoundly insightful. . . . Speaks to today's social and political moment as directly as this morning's headlines." --NPR "Moving. . . . Magnificent. . . . It's a large, rich, heterogeneous book, and hallelujah. . . . With this book, one is tempted to quote at length from her words: her acuity and moral clarity are dazzling, but so is her vision for how we might find our way towards a less unjust, less hateful future." --The Guardian.
