Toni Morrison


I belong to a considerable group of people that believes Toni Morrison is the greatest living writer. I will admit that it is a subjective platform, but one I could easily justify. Regardless of your level of affection for Toni Morrison, I encourage you to read and listen* to the lecture she delivered to the Swedish Academy as a Nobel Laureate. Toni Morrison received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1993.
