The Bluest Eye

 

TitleThe Bluest Eye
Author Toni Morrison
Call Number PS3563.O8749 B55 2007
Location 2nd Floor Humanities
Rating Highly Recommended
Book Review This book spoke to my soul. The Bluest Eye follows a narrator as she recounts the tragic story of a childhood friend named Pecola. Morrison’s exploration of the relationship between black people, particularly girls, and white beauty is painfully honest and transcends the pages. If you are seeking a powerful, perspective shifting story, I highly recommend it.
