NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A New York Times Notable Book • This fiery and provocative novel from the acclaimed Nobel Prize winner weaves a tale about the way the sufferings of childhood can shape, and misshape, the life of the adult.
“Powerful.... A tale that is as forceful as it is affecting, as fierce as it is resonant.” —Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times
At the center: a young woman who calls herself Bride, whose stunning blue-black skin is only one element of her beauty, her boldness and confidence, her success in life, but which caused her light-skinned mother to deny her even the simplest forms of love. There is Booker, the man Bride loves, and loses to anger. Rain, the mysterious white child with whom she crosses paths. And finally, Bride’s mother herself, Sweetness, who takes a lifetime to come to understand that “what you do to children matters. And they might never forget.”

Tiefgehende Erzählung einer verstörenden Kindheit

Bewertet: eBook (ePUB)
Das allgegenwärtige Thema Kindesmissbrauch sehr eindringlich erzählt von der immer großartigen Toni Morrison. Man taucht sofort in die Geschichte ein, die mich lange nicht losließ. Toni Morrison fehlt.
