TONI AND ZORA

TONI AND ZORA Toni Morrison wrote about such things as babies born with a caul over its face; or a baby born without a navel; or African people who fly back home upon death. I have read very few of her books. But what I have read has been memorable “the sounds a woman’s thighs make rubbing together in corduroy pants .” Toni reminds me of Zora Neal Hurston, another Bison sister of an earlier era , ethos , who delighted to plumb the depthless contours of our African American history, culture, as did her earlier writer-Howard sister.
