Review
Six novels, a short story, and a critical book are included in Furman's extensive survey of Morrison's fiction and influences. This is a fine college-level examination of the writer which examines the major themes and settings which unify her writings and create fine portraits of black experience. The tone is critical, analytical and revealing. -- Midwest Book Review
