Song of Solomon
Song of Solomon

Evocative journey of identity, history, and liberation.

Song of Solomon is more than just a novel; it's an experience where myth meets reality. The prose Toni Morrison weaves is lush and resonant, serving as a vessel for exploring themes that touch on cultural identity, family roots, and personal transformation. It's a book that can deeply resonate with anyone on a quest to understand their past and shape their own story.

Description

Milkman Dead was born shortly after a neighborhood eccentric hurled himself off a rooftop in a vain attempt at flight. For the rest of his life he, too, will be trying to fly. With this brilliantly imagined novel, Toni Morrison transfigures the coming-of-age story as audaciously as Saul Bellow or Gabriel García Márquez. As she follows Milkman from his rustbelt city to the place of his family’s origins, Morrison introduces an entire cast of strivers and seeresses, liars and assassins, the inhabitants of a fully realized black world.
