Beloved - Toni Morrison I've read first 50 pages of this book and I'm utterly confused. The writing is strange. I'm glued to the pages, but I have no idea what is going on. I even watched an interview with her about this book, hoping it would help a bit, but it didn't. She said she wanted to achieve this, have her readers uncomfortable, in a new situation where they know nothing, to evoke the feeling her characters book had, being dropped wherever, by whoever, having no control over their lives, and trying to find their way around. Well, let's see how it goes for me.
