this is my first RlToni Morrison novel and let me just say, I get it. her prose is better than just about everyone else - poetic and lyric, sassy and deep. so great. brilliant in so many ways.

At one point I had no idea what I was reading.
I will do a re-read in a future because I refuse to give up on a Toni Morrison book.

This was the most challenging out of the trilogy. Also not my favorite of Ms. Morrisons’ works but still beautifully powerful, complex, deep and impactful.
