I loved the lyrical expansiveness of this novel. I listened on audiobook and slowed it down to appreciate Morrison’s sentences more deeply. So much movement and characterization in such slight space. At times, I found the shifts in perspective hard to follow, and I didn’t always understand the motivations of characters.

That said, I look forward to exploring more of Morrison’s work.
