Clearly people that don't like this book haven't done any true critical analysis of the text. Have you read the timelines, do you understand the true genius of this work? She skips all over the place on purpose and her intent is to leave you dizzy trying to figure out what trip you just went on. Guess what, you rode in a ship's hull during the Middle Passage! You witnessed the terrible dissociations that occur when people are abused and demeaned for over a century. And you've heard another side of history from the subjective perspective of the enslaved rather than the White men who justified the enslavement of millions of people. Instead most people put this book down thinking they just read a really confusing ghost story. Some of us are just stuck in our white paradigms. And that's cool, be you! But it is worth every minute to put the pieces of this Beloved puzzle together. Toni Morrison is a literary hero and a beautiful woman!

The Tree description on the mom's back... omg and how it got there was a trip!

My favorite book!!!!

Who is this person that keeps saying "yes" it's really annoying.

Ghosts without skin stuck their fingers in her and said beloved in the dark and bitch in the light.

Does anyone have the full recording and title of this interview?

I think that's a complete injustice to her work. That's like saying Hemmingway is only hyped because he was an alcoholic or James Joyce is only famous because he is Irish..

I am not sure how you've come to the conclusion that it's a feeble work of garbage. Beyond the issues of slavery that it takes on, it takes on larger themes and discussions ex. human condition without community, isolation from others and from one's own emotions. She explores the intricacies of the mother daughter relationship. She also gives her own voice to themes that other famous American literature has explored as well, elements of the supernatural, manipulations of narrative etc.

"DUH, ME NO UNDERSTAND BOOK! IT BAD! BLACK LADY BAD! BAD BLACK LADY BAD!"

I wonder if you'd expand on your opinion with some concrete points. Why do you believe this book is not worthy of its reputation? What about it disgusts you so much? I also wonder if you'd list some literature that you believe to be genuinely praiseworthy.

If only the great writers of the past would have known how they could have further increased their notoriety by dressing up as old black African American grandmothers of color. Indeed! This shows how a Puritan mother does all the editing in the United States. One of the things she really digs is the idea of a primitive member from the thickest jungles of an African tribe growing up to write almost as good as a white person. Behold the noble female Afroid of refracted wave light!

I came in here trying to be critical of Toni Morrison. In University, we criticized Shakespeare, Cervantes, and Samuel Clemens. What was a weakness in Plato's dialogues? Have any of you even read a Platonic dialogue for cripes sake! Just how deep is your understanding philosophically speaking or are you just a typical sophist? Toni Morrison can't rise above petty tripe. First off, she is a woman. Second, she is a person of color who has never had too because of mother Puritan up north.

It's interesting how racist idiots always seem to find videos like this. Spew your hate somewhere else!

Cool? We are not concerned about being "cool", especially not to someone like you.

I'm not a racist. However, I must admit that I don't like being around blacks as they aren't the cool people they use to be. What is a racist cheesecake? Just ask an Afro American of color what a cheesecake is and you will find out. How does the square root of 4 equal prejudice? Once again, ask a colored person. Can a black person be both a black person and an American? No. Unfortunately, he has to be a Negro. Lord! Help us!

(Slav)ery. The most persecuted people on earrth weren't the pathetic Jews or Africans, but they were the Slavs. Do the Slavs complain about it? No. Who were the ones beat up by the Mongols and and then used as their infantry to break up the Roman Empire? The Slavs. Who were later enslaved by the Vikings? The Slavs. Who was beat up by the Germans during WW2? The Slavs. Who was later beat up by the Russians and forced into the Soviet Union? The Slavs. The Slavs are the real slaves.

The sophists (wisdomers) were characters created by Plato. They made a lot of money off the rich Greeks arguing both sides of an issue to prove there existed no truth. Look, I'm not arguing against the elderly Toni Morrison as such irreverence makes me feel as if I'm saying something bad about my grandmothers. I'm criticizing the author herself. She is extremely shallow. About as dumb as Jim Robinson was when he chopped up that chiffarobe. What kind of idiot chops up a good chiffarobe?

Are you saying the book sucks or are you arguing that slavery in the US was just wonderful for African Americans? Maybe if you really did understand what sophistry is, you could argue worth a damn. Underneath your crap arguments pretending to be intellectual, I can only conclude that you are ridden with racial anxiety.
