One of The Atlantics Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years A modern masterpiece about love and kinship, about living in an America birthed from slavery. Nobel Prize laureate Toni Morrison gives life to characters who struggle with what society tells them to be, and the love they long for and crave as Black women. With a new introduction by Jesmyn Ward.Extravagantly beautiful. . . . Enormously, achingly alive. -The New York TimesSula and Nel are born in the Bottom-a small town at the top of a hill. Sula is wild, and daring; she does what she wants, while Nel is well-mannered, a mammas girl with a questioning heart. Growing up they forge a bond stronger than anything, stronger even than the dark secret they have to bear. Strong enough, it seems, to last a lifetime-until, decades later, as the girls become women, Sulas anarchy leads to a betrayal that may be beyond forgiveness.
