I started my first book by Toni Morrison – I’m reading Song of Solomon. I first picked up Beloved and then felt a little overwhelmed – I decided that I probably needed to start with one of her earlier books.
I’m not going to lie – it’s a bit hard to follow! I’m a big reader and I regularly read dense literature (classics, etc) – but I’m finding it difficult to catch on to the flow. I am basically facing the same challenges I faced with Beloved. At the same time, I’m in awe of her use of language. It’s really visceral.
Can anyone share some insight on how to read her books – I would love to understand it and catch on. I really do love the writing.
