# Race **Author:** Toni Morrison **Date Read:** 2019/12/08 **Rating:** 4/5 **Bookshelves:** ## My Review A powerful introduction to writing on race. While first few chapters are extracts from one of three most well know books of the author, my high rating is possibly entirely due to the last chapter, a short story titled Recitatif. A powerful story of two girls with “difficult” childhoods, separated clearly by class but their racia identities possibly purposely left unclear. Short and illuminating read
