Toni MorrissonShes is far from being shallow with her writing and everytime i read one of her books over again i always find something new out.....especially in beloved and she does not take her words for granted in her writing
shes very symbolic with every detail in her writing and she doesnt write just for the heck of it but to appeal to a rare side of the audience which makes them hunger for truth while reading ....She has wrote Beloved , the bluest eyes, paradise, love, tar baby, songs of solomon, jazz and sula.Beloved is definitely my favorite out of the bunch.paradise and beloved are in my personal library
