A Year of Toni Morrison: Sula

Poet Sonia Sanchez said of her friend Toni Morrison, “In order to survive, you should re-read Toni every ten years because every ten or 15 years, we have to re-imagine ourselves on this American landscape. You won’t survive if you don’t do that.” We believe now is the time. Join us on a year-long journey through Toni Morrison’s remarkable literary legacy.

Join the conversation on Sunday, February 15th at 2pm as we discuss, “Sula.”

About Sula:

Sula and Nel are born in the Bottom—a small town at the top of a hill. Sula is wild, and daring; she does what she wants, while Nel is well-mannered, a mamma’s girl with a questioning heart. Growing up they forge a bond stronger than anything, stronger even than the dark secret they have to bear. Strong enough, it seems, to last a lifetime—until, decades later, as the girls become women, Sula’s anarchy leads to a betrayal that may be beyond forgiveness.
