""Morrison dazzles. . . . She creates a black community strangely

provide some of the best fictional dialogue around today." --"The
Nation
""A marvelous novel, the most moving I have read in ten years of
reviewing." --"Cleveland Plain Dealer

impeccable sense of emotional detail. She's the most sensible
lyrical writer around today." --"The Philadelphia Inquirer
