I just finished Toni Morrison's "Sula"
Even though I'm an English teacher, I don't read many new things. Sula was the first new book I've read since last summer.
It's a little slow to start (you don't even meet the eponymous character until a third of the way through), but it's a really beautiful book.
For reasons I can't explain, the ending emotionally wrecked me. Morrison's prose hits me on an unconscious level.
I would love to teach this in my sophomore English class, but the puritanical patents would balk at the sexuality.
Highly recommended. I've read Beloved, Jazz, Paradise, Song of Solomon, The Bluest Eye, and her final book. Any other must-read Morrison?
