Reviews
"Wonderful. . . . A brilliant, daring novel. . . . Every voice amazes." -Chicago Tribune "She may be the last classic American writer, squarely in the tradition of Poe, Melville, Twain and Faulkner." -Newsweek "[A] masterpiece. . . . She has moved from strength to strength until she has reached the distinction of being beyond comparison." -Entertainment Weekly "Thrillingly written . . . seductive. . . . Some of the finest lyric passages ever written in a modern novel." -Chicago Sun-Times "A compelling blend of heart and language. . . . Resounds with passion." -The Boston Globe "Marvelous. . . . Morrison is perhaps the finest novelist of our time." -Vogue "The author conjures up worlds with complete authority and makes no secret of her angst at the injustices dealt to black women." -Edna O'Brien, The New York Times Book Review "She captures that almost indistinguishable mixture of the anxiety and rapture of expectation-that state of desire where sin is just another word for appetite." -San Francisco Chronicle "As rich in themes and poetic images as her Pulitzer Prizewinning Beloved. . . . Morrison conjures up the hand of slavery on Harlem's jazz generation. The more you listen, the more you crave to hear." -Glamour "She is the best writer in America. Jazz, for sure; but also Mozart." -John Leonard, National Public Radio "A masterpiece. . . . A sensuous, haunting story of various kinds of passion. . . . Mesmerizing." -Cosmopolitan "Lyrically brooding. . . . One accepts the characters of Jazz as generalized figures moving rhythmically in the narrator's mind." -The New York Times "Transforms a familiar refrain of jilted love into a bold, sustaining time of self-knowledge and discovery. Its rhythms are infectious." -People From the Trade Paperback edition., "Wonderful. . . . A brilliant, daring novel. . . .
