Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison is an analysis of beauty and racism from one of America’s finest authors.
What Malorie Says: “The Bluest Eye was the first Toni Morrison book I ever read but it certainly wasn’t the last. Toni was a phenomenal writer and The Bluest Eye was a devastating read in its depiction of a girl, Pecola Breedlove, who finds it impossible to love herself for who and what she is.”
What They Say: “Not only a story but an awe-inspiring poem that confronts beauty itself” — Guardian
