Seller Description
Staring unflinchingly into the abyss of slavery, this spell-bounding novel transforms history into a story as powerful as Exodus and as intimate as a lullaby. Set he, it’s protagonist, was born a slave and escaped to Ohio, but eighteen years later she was still not free. She has too many memories of Sweet Home, the beautiful farm where so many hideous things happened. And Sethe’s new home is haunted by the ghost of her baby, who died nameless and whose tombstone is engraved with a single word: Beloved. Filled with bitter poetry and suspense as taut as rope, Beloved is towering achievement by Novel Prize laureate Toni Morrison.
