Kritik
"A rich, powerful, and refreshing contribution to the study of Toni Morrison's oeuvre. This book engages the Nobel laureate's work with uncommon clarity and command, while brilliantly situating language and its ethical dimensions at the center of its inquiry. Blending convincing and careful close readings with critical theory, Yvette Christianse crafts a fine, durable interpretive lens through which we may more intelligently view the challenges and power of Morrison's art."--Stephane Robolin, Rutgers Universitymehr
