Description

Read the searing first novel from the celebrated author of Beloved, which immerses us in the tragic, torn lives of a poor black family in post-Depression 1940s Ohio. Unloved, unseen, Pecola prays each night for blue eyes. In this way she dreams of becoming beautiful, of becoming someone – like her white schoolfellows – worthy of care and attention. Immersing us in the tragic, torn lives of a poor black family in post-Depression Ohio, Toni Morrison’s indelible debut reveals the nightmare at the heart of Pecola’s yearning, and the tragedy of its fulfilment.**AS FEATURED IN OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB**''She revealed the sins of her nation, while profoundly elevating its canon. She suffused the telling of blackness with beauty, whilst steering us away from the perils of the white gaze. That''s why she told her stories. And why we will never, ever stop reading them'' Afua Hirsch''Discovering a writer like Toni Morrison is rarest of pleasures'' Washington Post''When she arrived, with her first novel, The Bluest Eye, she immediately re-ordered the American literary landscape'' Ben OkriWinner of the PEN/Saul Bellow award for achievement in American fiction
