Toni Morrison writes about deeply wounded people. This is her first book that I've read that I've liked. I'm not sure why. I think she doesn't always give herself time to fully develop her characters in the shorter books, and I've only read her shorter books.
Graphic: Gun violence and Murder
Moderate: Toxic relationship, Death of parent, and Child death
Minor: Abandonment
