Toni Morrison

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.

"I enjoyed this far more than the Bluest Eye and it contains a wonderful conclusion about the circle of life and a bit of gender norms, but is written in Morrison’s absurd grotesque style which I continue to hate but is growing on me."

Téa Picconatto

"This was my introduction to Toni Morrison. Her writing is very detailed and vivid; she really knows how to paint a picture with her vocabulary. I can’t wait to read her other works!"

Suzanne St John

"This is my favorite novel of all time - from one of my favorite authors! A wonderful "study" of small town life and tbe complicated relationship between women."

Jacqueline Hopkins

"Absolutely fantastic. So complex with symbols and beautiful language on every page. Morrison shows but doesn’t tell, leaving the reader to interpret the scenes for themselves."
