Everything Made Perfect
She knew why he deserved it. He wasn’t a good man. Not a good lover. Not a good father. Living with him daily confirmed he had not the knowledge or the heart to engage Christine on her level. She was a model of capability, mastering almost every area of her life, but secretly tormented by the fact that, once again, happiness in a crucial relationship had eluded her. Frank, well, Frank was damned too. Unable to fathom its design, the way of love seemed hopelessly beyond his grasp. Now free for the most part from the world’s distractions, this unlikely pair, cuffed together for what seemed like an eternity, cautiously ventured into their retirement years. One had gained an unfair advantage over the other. With love no longer at stake and a shadow falling over their lives, one hatches a plot to fully exploit the other as a crowd of memorable friends and dysfunctional family slowly watches it all fall part.

Toni Morrison and Literary Tradition
Choice Outstanding Academic Title 2014 Toni Morrison and Literary Tradition explores Toni Morrison's construction of alternative and oppositional narratives of history and places her work as central to the imagining and re-imagining of American and diasporic identities. Covering the Nobel Prize-winning author's novels (up to Home), as well as her essays, dramatic works and short stories, this book situates Morrison's writings within both African-American and American writing traditions and examines them in terms of her continuous dialogue with the politics, philosophy and literary forms of these traditions. Toni Morrison and Literary Tradition provides a comprehensive analysis of Morrison's entire oeuvre, from her early interrogation of Black Power to her engagement with fin de siècle postcolonial critiques of nationalism and twenty-first century considerations of ecology. Justine Baillie goes on to argue that Morrison's aesthetic should be understood in relation to the historical, political and cultural contexts in which it, and the African-American and American literary traditions upon which she draws, have been created and developed.
Off the Top

Toni Morrison

The revised edition includes new discussion of God Help the Child, The Origin of Others, and The Source of Self-Regard. These additions present and intensify scholarship on Morrison’s major literary contributions, but also trace her significant role as a public intellectual, bringing to light the consistency of Morrison’s aesthetic and political visions.
