This book seeks to focus on the ethnic feminist consciousness in
the novels of Toni Morrison against the backdrop of black feminist
theories. Morrison's novels often meditate upon the historical
injustices the African American women have been subjected to and
also effectively portray such trauma by engaging with their
conflicted world. The author's oeuvre ably registers the
existential angst and metaphysical dilemmas of being both black and
women in America.Therefore an analysis based on black feminist
criticism uncovers a broad spectrum of experiences of black women
living in a highly segregated and institutionalized world. Keeping
these aims in view, the study considers for critical treatment the
major fiction of Morrison that includes The Bluest Eye (1970), Sula
(1973), Song of Solomon (1977), Tar Baby (1984), Beloved (1987),
Jazz (1993), Paradise (1998) and Love (2003). An attempt shall also
be made to compare the works of Morrison, wherever appropriate,
with her contemporaries with a view to better understand Morrison's
unique fictional vision. The analysis should be useful to black
feminists, readers of Morrison' novels.
