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 Garci a Ma rquez. 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.
