Nobel Prize winner Toni Morrison's works are being compiled into a book of quotations:
—a reference to one of her most famous sayings: “We die. That may be the meaning of life. But we do language. That may be the measure of our lives.”
A publisher’s note describes the book as a distillation of her major themes, including “transcendence through imagination; the self and its discontents; the vicissitudes of love; the whirligig of memory; the singular power of women; the original American sin of slavery; the bankruptcy of racial oppression; the complex humanity; and art of black people.”
