Not the erasure, but the confrontation of it.\" -- TONI MORRISON\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this wide-ranging collection of thought-provoking interviews -- including her first and last -- Toni Morrison (whom President Barrack Obama called a \"national treasure\") details not only her writing life, but also her other careers as a teacher, and as a publisher, as well as the gripping story of her family. In fact, Morrison reveals here that her Nobel Prize-winning novels, such as \u003ci\u003eBeloved\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eSong of Solomon, \u003c\/i\u003e were born out of her family's stories -- such as those of her great-grandmother, born a slave, or her father, escaping the lynch mobs of the South. With an introduction by her close friend, poet Nikki Giovani, Morrison hereby weaves yet another fascinating and inspiring narrative -- that of herself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Melville House Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/07\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781612198736\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.40w x 0.60d","brand":"Melville House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36662051569820,"sku":"9781612198736","price":14.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_ca2203d6-87df-48db-82e3-b13a3fdb9e6d.jpg?v=1603900935","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/toni-morrison-the-last-interview-and-other-conversations-9781612198736","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
