À propos de cet audio

From the acclaimed Nobel Prize winner: Two girls who grow up to become women. Two friends who become something worse than enemies. This brilliantly imagined novel brings us the story of Nel Wright and Sula Peace, who meet as children in the small town of Medallion, Ohio.

Nel and Sula's devotion is fierce enough to withstand bullies and the burden of a dreadful secret. It endures even after Nel has grown up to be a pillar of the black community and Sula has become a pariah. But their friendship ends in an unforgivable betrayal—or does it end? Terrifying, comic, ribald and tragic, Sula is a work that overflows with life.

The text- poetic. Toni Morrison's voice - smooth as honey. The plot details - sometimes shocking. The characters - Bea, Hannah, Sula , Nel, Shadrack bizarre but relatable.

very soft...adjust the volume to hear. loud ,assertive turn down the volume. seems i should be honored to hear the authors own voice but the variation was distracting.

i found the sound of the readers voice troublesome

After listening to Sula I truly understood why Toni Morrison is one of America’s greats. I don’t know how she beautifully fit an entire world/story in less than 200 pages. She’s a master of her craft

Favourite Morrison book so far. Lovely to hear her voice while I read along. The music at the end takes you out of it though which is a shame. It is very funny at least.

One of her most powerful novels beautifully read!

Hell yea

I had high hopes for a novel by Toni Morrison read by her. But she reads very unevenly—changes in pitch and volume, all with a soporific drawl. The story is hard to follow and keeps reintroducing characters with languid descriptions but no clear purpose in the narrative. Certainly not Morrison’s best.

Boring and uneven
