Toni Morrison, Nobel Prize winner, is one of the most important and influential writers of the 20th and 21st centuries. Her work touches on the themes of identity, race, gender and the history of African Americans. In "Self-Esteem", Morrison shares her thoughts on the state of the modern world, the role of the artist in society and the importance of building communities. Her words are full of wisdom, empathy and hope.
The book "Self-Esteem" is a perfect combination of Toni Morrison's literary genius with her deep reflection on the human condition. Morrison addresses difficult and controversial social issues, such as human rights, race, gender, divisions and exclusions. She focuses on black people, women, foreigners, not neglecting the topics that touch us every day: globalization, the feeling of alienation and loneliness or war. She looks at cultural matters: the role of the artist in society, literary imagination, and in the Nobel lecture the power of language.
It is a collection of brilliant, personal, but also surprisingly up-to-date texts. Morrison reminds us of building community, of choosing we instead of I. And the message that resonates from her texts can become a valuable guidepost for us: Don't let anyone convince you that this is what the world looks like and that this is how it has to be. The book has 496 pages and is hardcover.
