Song of Solomon explores the quest for cultural identity through an African American folktale about enslaved Africans who escape slavery by fleeing back to Africa. The novel tells the story of Macon "Milkman" Dead, a young man alienated from himself and estranged from his family, his community, and his historical and cultural roots. Author Toni Morrison, long renowned for her detailed imagery, visual language, and "righting" of black history, guides the protagonist along a 30-year journey that enables him to reconnect with his past and realize his self-worth.

评分读了好久,终于读完了这本其实并不算大部头的书……故事到中后部才变得吸引人,前半部分太过平淡,铺陈太多,从普通读者的角度看着比较无聊,很多东西要看到后面才能理解作者的描述意图。不过读完之后,依然感慨万千,这可能就是好书的共性吧——不论阅读的过程如何,读完之后...
