(CHOICE)Gillespie constructs a rich critical narrative of Morrison's works. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty; general readers. The collection is a distinctive review, examination, and (re)discovery of Morrison’s work and cultural impacts as defined by emerging and acclaimed artists, scholars, and public figures.. More than a scholarly exploration, the collection celebrates Morrison and her wide influence on other practitioners. This book attempts to reproduce the character and spirit of Morrison’s metaphorical terrain by offering readers the first interdisciplinary overview of Morrison’s artistry, broadly-writ.

Some of the highlights of the collection include contributions from many of the major scholars of Morrison’s canon: as well as art pieces, music, photographs and commentary from poets, Nikki Giovanni and Sonia Sanchez; novelist, A.J. Morrison’s vision invites consideration of these complexities and confronts these most basic human conundrums with courage, resolve and grace.

What distinguishes this bookfrom the many other publications that engage Morrison’s work is that the collection is not exclusively a work of critical interpretation or reference. Like the intricacies of Morrison’s intellectual and artistic voyages, the Clearing is both verdant and deadly, a sanctua
