You are personally invited to join us in discussing Toni Morrison’s book The Bluest Eye at the Reading as Activism Bookclub. Here is a brief description of the book from Goodreads. “The Bluest Eye is Toni Morrison’s first novel, a book heralded for its richness of language and boldness of vision. Set in the author’s girlhood hometown of Lorain, Ohio, it tells the story of black, eleven-year-old Pecola Breedlove. Pecola prays for her eyes to turn blue so that she will be as beautiful and beloved as all the blond, blue-eyed children in America. In the autumn of 1941, the year the marigolds in the Breedloves’ garden do not bloom. Pecola’s life does change- in painful, devastating ways.
What its vivid evocation of the fear and loneliness at the heart of a child’s yearning, and the tragedy of its fulfillment. The Bluest Eye remains one of Toni Morrisons’s most powerful, unforgettable novels- and a significant work of American fiction.”
We would love for you to join us on Saturday, January 30, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. via Zoom. We will have discussion questions. However, please feel free to come with a few questions and discussion points as well.
Please invite anyone you think would be interested to this event.
The mission of “Reading As Activism” is to bring together a community of bright thinkers and doers to discuss themes, ideas, and plot in books that lead to action inspired by the books we read, our analysis of the books and our interactions with each other.
