Jazzby Morrison, Toni
DescriptionNY: Knopf, 1992. The jacket and boards are slightly shelf worn and there what appears to be a random ink mark, rather than a remainder mark, on the top page edges. This is faint and about 1/4" long. Otherwise, the book is not marked and the binding is tight.. First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good. Book summaryThe unnamed omniscient narrator--like a Greek chorus, or a tribal storyteller--relates the story of Joe and Violet Trace, a pair of orphans who meet and marry in rural Virginia, then come north to Harlem in 1906. Trapped in their unfulfilling marriage for 20 years, Joe begins an affair with a young woman, Dorcas. When she leaves him, he kills her--an act which, oddly, restores his relationship with Violet. Throughout the novel, the rhythms of jazz in early-20th-century New York propel the narrative. Similar books from this booksellerFrom this bookseller's General Fiction catalog.
