This is an excellent novel to read by Toni Morrison. I had the opportunity to use this novel for a class in African-American Literature. The characters are easily traced and understood. The symbols used in the book to portray actually realities of life were just striking. The development of the plot intriguing, flow of the storyline very captivating and intoxicating. Having read this novel several times, I have found it to be a dynamic story of reality based on fictional characters.

The story in this novel of the Breedlove family in just simply amazing! Ironically, it is one without love, even though by virtue of the family's name one would assume love is involved. The only thing one finds there is no love.

The moral of this novel brings several themes to light: First, that life is a struggle especially when one tries to maintain a quality of life in an environment that is hostile to his or her welfare. Secondly, it shows what happens to a female who lives in a family without love, while she is thirsty for love, and would love to be loved by others. Next, it shows how racial prejudice and self hatred affects a family and a person's self image.

This excellent novel brings one to realize how the lack of opportunity, lack of intrinsic motivation, and feeling of inferiority affects a person's life, thus stunning the growth of the person. Toni Morrison brings these concepts of reality to life in a very interesting way in this novel.

One must read this book to appreciate the story, images, conflicts, plot, and resolution. This is truly a classic example of life's situation one must avoid; however, others are unfortunately experiencing these conditions across the world as we speak.
