Toni Morrison——Song of Solomon 与 Tar Baby 的作者——是一位具有非凡力量的作家：她的小说以其磅礴的热情、绚烂的语言以及抒情与情感的力量广受盛赞，将经验与情感的不容置疑的真实性同传奇与想象的构想完美融合。这部作品以美国南北战争后的俄亥俄州为背景，讲述了逃奴 Sethe 的故事：她冒着生命危险，只为挣脱生不如死的悲惨境遇；她失去了丈夫，埋葬了孩子；她承受了难以想象的苦难却并未发疯，是一个有着“钢铁般眼神和坚韧脊梁”的女性。Sethe 生活在一处

见鬼，弗吉尼亚州当选州长就靠这种“虚假民愤”吃尽了红利，起因竟然是一个高三学生被《宠儿》（Beloved）这本书造成了严重的“精神创伤”——那可是过去50年里最受推崇的美国小说之一啊。
Heck, the Virginia governor-elect cashed in on this "faux outrage" because a high school senior was so mentally injured by the book Beloved, one of the most regarded pieces of American fiction in the past 50 years.
我太喜欢这个开头了，时不时就会回味一下。我最近读了他的《Chronicle of a Death Foretold》，它的开头感觉就是从这里汲取了灵感。托妮·莫里森的《宠儿》（Beloved）的开头同样令人叹为观止。
I love this opening and it’s one I think about more than I should. I recently read his Chronicle of a Death Foretold and it’s opening felt drawn from this one. Toni Morrison’s Beloved opening is breathtaking as well.
Toni Morrison的《宠儿》（Beloved）。文笔美极了。
Beloved by Toni Morisson. Such beautiful prose.
我最初接触Morrison是通过《最蓝的眼睛》（The Bluest Eye）。后来读了她很多书，包括《宠儿》（Beloved）。我都非常喜欢。但我始终搞不懂的一件事是，一个对非裔美国人经历有着如此深刻洞察的人，怎么会把比尔·克林顿称为“第一位黑人总统”。我……
My first intro to Morrison was thru 'The Bluest Eye'. Afterwards I read many of her books incl 'Beloved'. I loved all of them. One thing I could however never understand was how a person with such deep insights into the African American experience could call Bill Clinton, 'the first Black President'. I…
心都碎了。Toni Morrison是我们这个时代最伟大的作家之一。我很喜欢《宠儿》（Beloved），但《最蓝的眼睛》（The Bluest Eye）才是我的最爱。
My heart is breaking. Toni Morrison was one of the greatest writers of our time. I loved Beloved, but The Bluest Eye is my favorite.
……看起来像那样。这类小说往往很难啃，但大部分值得做的事都会带来挑战。如果你从没读过Cormac McCarthy的《血色子午线》（Blood Meridian）、Toni Morrison的《宠儿》（Beloved）或者加西亚·马尔克斯的《百年孤独》（100 Years of Solitude），亦或是文学史上其他许多伟大的艺术成就，你真该挑战一下自己去读一读。它们会让我们变得更优秀。
…seem like it. Those sorts of novels tend to be challenging to read, but most things worth doing challenge us. If you've never read something like Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian, or Toni Morrison's Beloved, or Gabo's 100 Years of Solitude, or many of the other great artistic achievements in literature, you really should challenge yourself to do so. They make us better.
