"[T]his brilliant work is a frightening parody on man's return (in a few weeks) to that state of darkness from which it took him thousands of years to emerge. Fully to succeed, a fantasy must approach very close to reality. Lord of the Flies does. It must also be superbly written. It is" (The New York Times Book Review). It has been adapted to film twice, in 1963 by Peter Brook and again 1990 by Harry Hook.

New York: Knopf, 1987. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Toni Morrison's novels are brilliantly acclaimed for their passion, their dazzling language and their lyric and emotional force. She brings her vast powers to a story set in post Civil War Ohio of Sethe, and escaped slave who has risked death in order to wrench herself from a living death; who has lost a husband and buried a child; who has borne the unthinkable and not gone mad: a woman of iron eyes and a backbone to match. In Beloved, Toni Morrison has given us a great American novel. Book is beautiful, unmarked and unread. Unclipped jacket (18.95) is perfect. Book is now protected in Mylar and is an iconic collectible.

New York: Alfred A. Knopf. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 1987. First Edition; First Printing. Cloth. 0394535979 . An attractive first printing of the first edition in Fine condition in alike dustjacket; Set shortly after the Civil War in rural Ohio, Morrison's story revolves around Sethe, a runaway slave who had sent her children away to their grandmother in Ohio, their freedom paid for by their father. When her "owners" come to recapture Sethe, she tries to murder the children, succeeding with only one, Beloved. That action will haunt her for the rest of her life and will affect all around her. Basis for the 1998 film starring Oprah Winfrey .

After Paul D. finds his old slave friend Sethe in Ohio and moves in with her and her daughter Denver, a strange girl comes along by the name of "Beloved." Sethe and Denver take her in and then strange things begin to happen. Set in rural Ohio several years after the Civil War, this profoundly affecting chronicle of slavery and its aftermath is Toni Morrison's greatest novel, a dazzling achievement, and the most spellbinding reading experience of the decade. A brutally powerful, mesmerizing story ... read it and tremble. At the center of Toni Morrison's fifth novel, which earned her the 1988 Pulitzer Prize for fiction, is an almost unspeakable act of horror and heroism: a woman brutally kills her infant daughter rather than allow her to be enslaved. The woman is Sethe, and the novel traces her journey from slavery to freedom during and immediately following the Civil War. Woven into this circular, mesmerizing narrative are the horrible truths of Sethe's past: the incredible cruelties she endured as a slave, and the hardships she suffered in her journey north to freedom. Just as Sethe finds the past too painful to remember, and the future just "a matter of keeping the past at bay," her story is almost too painful to read. Yet Morrison manages to imbue the wreckage of her characters' lives with compassion, humanity, and humor. Part ghost story, part history lesson, part folk tale, Beloved finds beauty in the unbearable, and lets us all see the enduring promise of hope that lies in anyone future. Alfred A.
