A ravishingly beautiful and emotionally incendiary reinvention of the love story by the legendary Nobel Prize winner Arresting images, fierce intelligence, poetic language . . . One becomes entranced by Toni Morrison's story. --The Washington Post
Jadine Childs is a Black fashion model with a white patron, a white boyfriend, and a coat made out of ninety perfect sealskins. Son is a Black fugitive who embodies everything she loathes and desires. As Morrison follows their affair, which plays out from the Caribbean to Manhattan and the deep South, she charts all the nuances of obligation and betrayal between Blacks and whites, masters and servants, and men and women.
