A mercy

Morrison, Toni, 1931-20192008
Books
Set in America in the 1680s, 'A Mercy' reveals what lies under the surface of slavery. At its heart, this is the ambivalent, disturbing story of a mother and a daughter - a mother who cuts off her daughter, to save her, and a daughter who may never exorcise that abandonment.
