Ep 760 - The Bluest Eye, by Toni Morrison
Toni Morrison's debut novel traces the tragedy of a young girl named Pecola Breedlove and the community that failed her. By splintering the book's perspective across the community of Lorain, she humanizes everyone and exonerates no one. Not an easy book, but a rewarding one. This episode is sponsored by Squarespace.…
