How To Read Toni Morrison And Where To Start With Namwali Serpell | Zero to Well-Read Podcast
Jeff and Rebecca sit down with literary critic and Harvard University professor Namwali Serpell, author of On Morrison, for a conversation about how to approach her famously difficult body of work. They discuss Morrison’s modernist experiments with form, the recurring themes of her work, and why feeling confused and unsettled by her books can be a sign that you’re on the right track. Then, Dr. Serpell offers suggestions for which books to start with and how to progress through Morrison’s novels.
