Finished reading: #Beloved by #ToniMorrison

10.21.26 → 10.31.26

I don’t think this is Morrison’s best and that makes me sad because I’ve loved everything else I’ve read of hers. It’s almost like she was trying too hard.

Going back to Morrison's early work, it's noticeable how her language evolved over the years. The stark voice, however, is inevitably hers. #TheBluestEye #ToniMorrison #booksky

At times, a discrepancy slips in between Claudia, the child, and her reflections as the narrator. But it’s Morrison. I will forgive her anything. #TheBluestEye #ToniMorrison #booksky

I occasionally return to what Toni Morrison wrote about James Baldwin. This is how one should show reverence and adoration for another.

In Toni Morrison's Nobel Prize lecture she reflected on the power of language, the necessity of remembrance, and the radical act of telling our own stories.

I'm nearing the end of this book, and I'm not ready for it to be over 😭 #AmReading #ReadBlackWomen #ToniMorrison
One thing I’m looking forward to this week is starting Toni at Random, released last Tuesday, July 28, in paperback. I’d been eagerly waiting to own the paperback edition, which I purchased yesterday at indie bookstore Book Culture LIC in Queens, NYC. 📚 bookculture.com/store/3 #books #ReadBlackWomen

“What are you without racism?
Are you any gOOd?
Are you still strong?
Are you still smart?

Do you still like yourself?”

Sometimes you don't survive whole, you just survive in part. But the grandeur of life is that attempt. It's not about that solution. It is about being as fearless as one can, and behaving as beautifully as one can, under completely impossible circumstances.

—Toni Morrison
