Title : A Gift - Toni Morrison - Book

Summary :

Set two hundred years before Beloved, A Gift evokes, in the same lyrical and verdant prose that characterized his previous novel, the beautiful, wild and still anarchic world that was 17th-century America.
Toni Morrison has rediscovered an urgent, poetic voice that allows her to move swiftly and easily between the worlds of history and myth, between the mundane and the realm of fable. A Gift, the heartbreaking tale of lost innocence and shattered dreams, now ranks alongside Beloved as one of Morrison's most haunting writings to date." (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times) "The epic force with which Morrison captures space and time surpasses even the skill with which she portrays her characters. She excels at finding a kind of poetry in this brutal, disjointed colonial world, taking her work beyond simply denouncing the infamies of slavery and the difficulties of being African American." (John Updike, The New Yorker)
