Sula
by Toni Morrison
Sula is the type of person a lot of people aspire to be but because she isn’t politically correct and takes what she wants (usually attributes that are afforded to men) she gets a bad reputation. Her friend Neil and the men she bed was the most interesting part of this story. Taking place in a time of segregation and words like “colored” and “whites” were heavily used; I appreciated that Sula did not let her color or her disability define her! She liberated herself without the approval of anyone! She remained strong and resilient (two words that society won’t let black women forget). She is the definition of the mantra “choose me or no one else will.” But with her confidence, her vulnerabilities allowed me to see her a human. I enjoyed reading about the complexities of womanhood from two different women perspectives different and moral standards.
