This month we’ll be discussing Nobel-prize winner Toni Morrison’s Beloved, for which she won the Pulitzer Prize in 1988.

The New York Times Book Review of Beloved was written by Margaret Atwood.

Amanda found the following web-links for us:

The Web Page of Toni Morrison's "Beloved" has information on Morrison and on the book. Includes a synopsis I saw links to all over the place.

A fan of Toni Morrison has, for 5 of her books, selected a few themes that they though were key and then compiled quotes relating to that theme and questions that quote brings up. This is all set up so that when you click on a theme you are walked through the quotes for that theme one at a time in I think the order they are in the book. One of the books this is done for is Beloved.
