Sula

Toni Morrison

This early work from Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison displays a literary talent that has become exponentially famous with each succeeding novel. Peopled with colorful characters suffering exploitations and prejudice, this national best-seller alludes to the complexity of being a black woman in the early part of the twentieth century.

Nel and Sula were the best of friends during their childhood together in Medallion, Ohio. They grew up surrounded by such offbeat characters as crazy Shadrack, and one-legged Eva. Nel chose to stay in Medallion to raise a family, but Sula went to the city and returned as a rebellious seductress.

Narrator Lynne Thigpen's unforgettable narration perfectly embodies the themes of death, sex, poverty, and friendship that fill Morrison's haunting prose.
