1.		A Mercy from Knopf Price: $14.37 Customer Review: "A Mercy" is Morrison's latest masterpiece and explores the relationship among its primary charters during the early formation of America. A farm in early Virginia is the main setting; its laborers - white, black, native, and a combination of all three - comprise the primary characters. Florens, a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885) (Oxford Mark Twain) from Oxford University Press, USA Customer Review: I can't say more on the plot because it's quite obvious what the plot is just from illustrations of the novel. But on the "controversial" aspect of the novel involving the excessive use of the N word, people have to think of the time period that Twain is writing about and when the novel was... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		Beloved from Vintage Price: $10.17 Customer Review: In the award-winning novel by Toni Morrison, BELOVED was one of the many books that I enjoyed reading with a heart-warming passion. It lead me by the hands through the struggling story of Sethe, a runaway slave, trying to let go of her past. As her and her family move to a farm in a house called... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Song of Solomon (Oprah's Book Club) from Plume Customer Review: Other people have praised this book more effectively than I possibly can. It's a major work of American literature, the first American novel I recommend to friends from other countries, and my favorite of Morrison's altogether gorgeous body of work.

5.		The Bluest Eye (Oprah's Book Club) from Plume Price: $12.06 Customer Review: I was very skeptical of buying from this company because I had never ordered books online before. But on the contrary, when I recieved my book in the mail in a neatly packed envelope I was soo happy. I couldn't have gotten a better book in the store. The book was in great condition and even smelled... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Beloved (Everyman's Library) from Everyman's Library Price: $16.32 Customer Review: "Beloved" by Toni Morrison is a beguiling, beautiful story. I found myself a little lost at first. It seemed like the story would shift at a crucial point, and we were left wondering what happened. But I was pulled in, even from the first couple of chapters,the characters had a hold on me, and I had... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		Love from Random House Large Print Customer Review: Thought it was a beautifully woven story of a friendship that develops between two women who once shared a bond with the same man.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		What Moves at the Margin: Selected Nonfiction from Univ Pr of Mississippi (Trd) Price: $19.80	Click here for more information


9.		Sula from Vintage Price: $10.40 Customer Review: The Bluest Eye is one of my favorite books of all time. Sula is also a great read. The insights about relationships are some of Morrison's best, the prose is clear and beautiful, and some of the events will stick in your brain for a long time.

10.		Paradise (Oprah's Book Club) from Plume Price: $10.20 Customer Review: Seems to be a lot of disagreement on this book. While I can understand a lot of people not liking it (not a conventional plot driven novel), what I can't understand is how so many people found it "confusing". I'm a handyman, not some english major grad student, and I didn't have any problem... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


11.		The Bluest Eye (Vintage International) from Vintage Price: $10.40 Customer Review: The Bluest Eye is about race relations and, as such, can never be completely understandable to a non-American such as me. It revolves around a simple and very sad story of rape, incest and the victimisation of a little girl in 1940s America. It is told from the point of view of blacks - this was... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		Jazz from Vintage Price: $11.16 Customer Review: Set primarily in Harlem in 1926, when jazz was bursting forth from the traditions of gospel and blues, this 1992 novel is one of Morrison's most experimental and least accessible. Written from multiple points of view, it uses the patterns of jazz itself for its structure. A series of overarching... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


13.	[no image]	Inventing the Truth: The Art and Craft of Memoir, Revised and Expanded Edition from Houghton Mifflin Customer Review: As a personal and corporate biographer, I hear many different life stories and have learned that no one approach or format fits all. This collection of essays is a splendid example of how different individuals see their lives in their own ways. The essays together also serve to reassure any would-be... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


14.		Tar Baby from Alfred A. Knopf Price: $21.80 Customer Review: Toni Morrison's fourth novel, published in 1981, between Song of Solomon (1997) and her Pulitzer Prize-winning Beloved (1987), experiments with some of the techniques and themes which make the latter novel such a powerful achievement. Set, unusually, on Isle des Chevaliers, a Caribbean island owned... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


15.		Playing in the Dark: Whiteness and the Literary Imagination from Vintage Price: $9.56 Customer Review: Playing in the Dark raises important questions about white hegemony in our literary traditions. It is extremely well written and will make you look at everything you read in a different light. Great book.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


16.		Beloved from Plume Customer Review: Beloved / 0-452-28062-1 Beloved is not for everyone (most books aren't), but if you cherish the tradition of rich symbolism given to us by such masters as Hawthorne and Poe, you may well love Beloved. Beloved tells the languorous story of the set-upon Sethe, an ex-slave who has endured the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


17.		James Baldwin : Collected Essays : Notes of a Native Son / Nobody Knows My Name / The Fire Next Time / No Name in the Street / The Devil Finds Work / Other Essays (Library of America) from Library of America Price: $23.10 Customer Review: One of the greatest writers of the 1900's. Excellent physical book. Well-made and aesthetically pleasing. During the time period, Baldwin creates a reality that few understand.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


18.		The Piano Lesson (The August Wilson Century Cycle) from Theatre Communications Group Price: $19.25 Customer Review: August Wilson's "Century Cycle" presents the African-American experience in the twentieth century. In my opinion, "The Piano Lesson" is the best of the lot. On its surface, it is a simple play - two siblings have different ideas about what to do with a piano one of them inherited from their father -... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


19.		Sula (Oprah's Book Club) from Knopf Price: $16.47 Customer Review: Written in 1973, Toni Morrison's second novel explores themes of life, love, sex, and death, contrasting Sula Peace and Nel Wright, best friends from childhood who grow up to lead totally different adult lives. Living in the Bottom, an ironically named, poverty-stricken black community in the hills... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


20.		Remember: The Journey to School Integration (Bccb Blue Ribbon Nonfiction Book Award (Awards)) from Houghton Mifflin Price: $12.24 Customer Review: Remember, the journey to school integration is both a powerful and beautiful book and a strong reminder of how fresh (should I say present?) discrimination is, and also how the determination and strength to face violence and incomprehension can overcome deep prejudices. Toni Morrison, (whom I... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
