Don't Make a Saint Out of Toni Morrison
Parul Sehgal, a book critic known for close readings, and Sasha Weiss, an editor and writer, discuss Toni Morrison’s work and the dangers of untouchable reverence. They probe Morrison’s musical sentences, brutal passages, daring perspectives, and how her books demand communal, intimate reading. The conversation presses to keep her ideas wrestled with, not sainted.
