Toni Morrison was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1993. She is the author of many novels, including The Bluest Eye, Beloved (made into a major film), Paradise and Love. She has also received the National Book Critics Circle Award and a Pulitzer Prize for her fiction.
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.

评分看完后,我的第一反应就是从床上跳起来写书评、这一刻的痛心、感动、震撼我必须要用文字记录下来! 这无疑是迄今为止我所看过的描写种族歧视和种族仇杀的书中最好的一本! 人们生活在被挤压、歧视、厌恶的环境下,常常会有不同的表现,你可以说是环境造就人、但你也无法排除很...

评分小时候,记得家里书架上有一本《根》,读得懵懵懂懂,现在已经记不大清书的内容了,只有一个朦胧的印象,苦难与坚韧,但这世上有那样一个种族,便记下了。黑色,本来就是一种有重量的颜色,让人沉落下来。 然而,《所罗门之歌》却是一个关于飞翔的故事,关于寻找的故事。寻...
最近读的还不错的一本书。很多值得回味的地方。
评分本科毕业论文
评分美国黑人飞往非洲的寻根之旅,要么肤浅,要么失望。Milkman在南部浮光掠影地游历几个好客小镇之后,在充满敌意的故乡找到了归属感。文化根源无法构建有效的共同体,无法解答流动不定的生活。
评分这是读的Morrison里语言最喜欢的 一本了。没有那么多冗杂,简简单单,干净幽默
评分这是自己第一本真真意义上的书,因为开启了阅读的第一本。
