    Just finished Beloved. This book is like no other. And Toni Morrison is a genius, a true storyteller, and has such a unique way of manipulating language. I am so sorry it took me so long to read her work. I wish I would’ve been able to read it while she was alive because this book has changed me. Rest In Peace Ms. Morrison. There will never be another like you.

    She makes me realize my own story, the story of my brethren, who are only brethren because of an error in the code, is one that needs to be told, that I should not worry about being too preachy, for as long as I write the thing truthfully, it will come out far more tastefully than my fear of it becoming inspiration porn

    Mother love me keep me warm Mother loves me, keeps me warm, nurtures me, cares for me, and calms me through the storm. To help me mother, help your baby to be strong, nothing more. No Money, is A Mercy, can The Bluest Eye find a Rainbow a Home? For Frank and his Sister here's a poem. I love you, Mother, I thank you everyday, love me, keep me warm, nurture me, care for me, show me what is right and wrong. Your love has kept me, in the light, words that make a man cave bright. And when I go to her at night, she rocks me in my cradle, so I sleep tight. I love you Mother. I Thank you everyday. Mother loves me, keeps me warm, nurtures me, cares for me, and calms me through the storm. To help me Mother, help your baby, to be strong, nothing more. Thank you Toni, for I've been torn, and my mother left me in the storm. By Eddie Campagnola Edward Campagnola, "Directions to the Dumpster" & Pen name "One Directions to Mercy Street"

    Never read the book. After watching the film (or at least trying to) it gave me the most awful nightmares I've had in years. Not that I understood the relentless shock pornography of the disjointed mish mash that assaulted my eyes. I'm not surprised it flopped. The scene where Oprah squats in her Victorian finery and takes a piss WAS taking the piss. There for effect, there to fill a gap and apologise for having nothing to say really. Maybe I should read the book? (go on, dare me)
