Toni Morrison's Fiction Contemporary Criticism

This collection of contemporary criticism explores her concern with racial and gender issues and analyzes her in relation to other major modern authors, her philosophical and religious speculations, and her preoccupation with the process of fiction-making.These classics provide a broad look at critical argument about Toni Morrison's meanings and significance during the past ten years. From the formative effects of learning one's "Otherness" as a result of majority perception, to the apocalyptic implications of racial memory, to the moral and psychologically constructive act of storytelling, to the structural function served by improvisational jazz music, to the imagery associated with both flight and naming, to the uniquely female experience of community-major issues raised by Morrison's body of work are explicated here.Middleton, David L. is the author of 'Toni Morrison's Fiction Contemporary Criticism', published 2000 under ISBN 9780815335887 and ISBN 0815335881.
