Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An official Oprah Winfrey’s “The Books That Help Me Through” selection • The acclaimed Nobel Prize winner transfigures the coming-of-age story with this brilliantly imagined novel. Includes a new foreword by the author.

Milkman Dead was born shortly after a neighborhood eccentric hurled himself off a rooftop in a vain attempt at flight. For the rest of his life he, too, will be trying to fly. As Morrison follows Milkman from his rustbelt city to the place of his family’s origins, she introduces an entire cast of strivers and seeresses, liars and assassins, the inhabitants of a fully realized Black world.

“Morrison moves easily in and out of the lives and thoughts of her characters, luxuriating in the diversity of circumstances and personality, and revelling in the sound of their voices and of her own, which echoes and elaborates theirs.” —The New Yorker

“A rhapsodic work. . . . Intricate and inventive.”The New Yorker

“Stunningly beautiful. . . . Full of magnificent people. . . . They are still haunting my house. I suspect they will be with me forever.” —Anne Tyler, The Washington Post

The first female African American editor in the history of celebrated publishing company Random House? You name it, Toni Morrison has won it and done it. With such an incredible body of work in audio, it can be difficult to know where to begin. For longtime fans of Morrison and newcomers alike, we’ve gathered a selection of some of her greatest.

Didn't draw me in

I think this is a book I will have to physically read, rather than listen to. The narrator's voice was a droning hum, which never prompted me to start listening again. So all of the sudden, I would have missed something, but didn't care enough to relisten to it.

what just happened?

me at the beginning: this is weird
me getting sucked in: just one more chapter
me at the end: I have no idea what to do with all of these feelings and ideas that now live in my head. *wanders aimlessly through the house*

A good slow tale. Beautifully narrated

Me. Morrison’s voice is perfect for this narration. It’s a slow tale that takes its time unwinding, but in the end it’s worth it. You don’t realize you’re ready a mystery until you’re nearing the end. For me, it couldn’t be a binge listen. I needed to take my time with it. And I will probably be sitting with it for a good while to come.
