Summary:

One of the few authors to attain both commercial success and literary
acclaim, Toni Morrison, a longstanding member of the American Academy
of Arts and Letters, is widely read by high school students and
general readers. Her books have been adapted into highly extolled
films such as Beloved, largely because, even when set in the past,
they grapple with issues and emotions relevant to contemporary
society.
