In this study of Toni Morrison's writing, Lawrie Balfour explores the idea of freedom through Morrison's novels and nonfiction. Morrison's writing illuminates the meanings of freedom and unfreedom in a democratic society founded on both the defense of liberty and the right to enslavement. Balfour considers how Morrison's writing ignites new ways of being free in the shadow of racial slavery and colonialism.
