We are honored to present the Nobel Laureate. She returns to the theme of slavery with A Mercy: A Novel; this time, in a period soon after the nation’s founding. A Publishers Weekly starred preview says, “Morrison’s lyricism infuses the shifting voices of her characters … Morrison’s unflinching narrative is all the more powerful for its relative brevity.” This event is co-sponsored with Politics & Prose. The cost of the event is $12, or receive two free tickets with the purchase of the book ($23.95) from Politics & Prose. To purchase a ticket, click here. For the two-tickets-with-book option, please contact Politics & Prose at 202/364-1919.
