Synopsis Toni Morrison is one of the foremost contemporary African-American women novelists. She was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1993. She is best known for her novels The Bluest Eye and Beloved; the latter won her the 1988 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. The present book makes a detailed study of Toni Morrison as a novelist with a focus on her novel Beloved. Divided into two sections, it has a unique framework. The first section introduces Toni Morrison, with an exhaustive commentary on the novel Beloved by the editor Ayesha Irfan; the second section contains scholarly articles by eminent critics on various aspects of the novel. The book, it is hoped, will be of immense value to the students and scholars of Afro-American literature, social history and women’s studies.
