Summary
It is on the path of redemption that the price of sacrifice is measured. Inspired by a different fact that occurred in 1856, Beloved exhumes the horror and folly of a painful past. Former slave, Sethe killed the child she cherished in the name of love and freedom, so that she escapes a destiny of servitude. A few years later, the ghost of Beloved, the little girl disappeared, comes back painfully haunting her guilty mother. Far from all the clichés, Toni Morrison revives memory and transcends the pain of the oppressed. Pulitzer Prize in 1988, Beloved is a great violent and upsetting novel. A new translation with an unpublished preface. Translated from English (United States) by Jakuta Alikavazovic
