Freedom is knowing who you are while unobstructedly stretching toward your potential or something like that. Look, we’re not as deep as Toni Morrison, but after reading this, the author’s third novel, we were inspired to wax poetic about existential topics like survival and identity.
Can a man named Macon “Dead” ever succeed at living freely? Can a boy known as Milkman mature into a confident guy? Is anyone more than just who their mothers, fathers, enemies, and friends think they are? Are you dizzy yet?
The book: Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison.
