bluest eye?

I love Toni Morrison's writing style. She has a really unique outlook on everything and her words flow along the page.

read the first few chapters while working on msskiv computer. Images and writing style were very interesting

it's really an excellent book...though not well-received at all when she wrote it. her images are really cool

she describes in ways i never would have thought of

i found the book to be very confusing

i actually almost read the entire book this time and i didnt understand it

when it was explaining one thing it went way to far off track to explain every detail and was hard to follow

BHog392: When you listen to people tell stories- esp southerners, the story line wanders around. A type of dialect actually.

well i didnt like that

Read T.R. Pearson for a good example. The first sentance of the book takes a full page.

that's a great point...have you ever listened to someone tell a story (especially older folks...sorry!!), part of the charm is how

roundabout the actual point can be...i agree, it can be obnoxious, but morrison is trying to capture that feeling

didn't you think some of the themes were at least interesting? sure sounds like things we still can discuss today

Hard to get into the book at first. The book didn't get right to the point and I didn't like that.

Yeah it was like she cared more about just trying to get everyone's perspective but not really stating her central theme.

interesting...I think I get that...especially, as we talked about, knowing how your minds work now...

I didn't care too much about the book. However, I do like all the themes that were throughout it.

I feel that we could've spent more time on it though, cuz there's a lot more to cover.
