This is Morrison's masterwork for which she was awarded the
Pulitzer and, subsequently, the Nobel Prize. It is an unflinchingly
tough and heart-wrenching novel, examining the ghosts of slavery in
the lives of black American women. Sethe has killed her own
daughter, Beloved, with a saw rather than return her to the
plantations. Some years later, in the summer of 1873, a troubled
and oddly familiar young woman appears in Sethe's life. Has the
past caught up with her at last? Beloved is a novel of great
lyrical beauty and emotional intensity. (Kirkus UK)
It is the mid-1800s. At Sweet Home in Kentuckhy, an era is ending as slavery comes under attack from the abolitionists. The worlds of Halleand Paul D. are to be destroyed in a cataclysm of torment and agony. The world of Sethe, however, is to turn from one of love to one of violence and death - the death of Sethe's baby daughter Beloved, whosename is the single word on the tombstone, who died at her mother's hands, and who will return to claim retribution.
