> Canadian writer Margaret Atwood wrote in a review for the New York Times, "Ms. Morrison's versatility and technical and emotional range appear to know no bounds. If there were any doubts about her stature as a pre-eminent American novelist, of her own or any other generation, 'Beloved' will put them to rest."
From the 1987 review of Beloved.
Sure, maybe I was a bit hyperbolic, but it is essentially unarguable that Toni Morrison is one of the most important, respected, and lauded writers in American history.
Indeed, it looks like she's only semi-famous because Oprah featured 4 of her works in her book club. Which is why I don't have any idea who she is or what she wrote, given I've never watched Oprah.
