Still looking for interviews with Toni Morrison right after the publication of "Tar Baby." I think we're missing a huge part of her global vision by not giving "Tar Baby" the critical attention I believe it is due. I hope more of those archived interviews will be released soon too. Still my favorite writer

You’re so right. Tar Baby is severely underrated. It’s also her only novel primarily set outside of the US I believe. Hope to hear her discuss it as these interviews trickle onto the internet!

Toni Morrison remains a literary giant and a unique American gift to us all. I am so grateful we have her books with, and that I will be able to share them with my kids and my grandkids. Thank you, Toni Morrison. If you were here before me, I would kneel before you and bow my head. You gave us so much. Thank you.

Yikes. Very very bad interview. “Did you hear ghost stories?” “Was this book based on a ghost story you heard?” Essentially struggling to view this novel as a piece of power creation. I think the interviewer asked one question about the book,

Beloved is the story of a spirit that comes back. We all know it was based on the clipping she included in “The Black Book” about Margaret Garner, and she made the rest her own. It’s a perfectly legitimate to ask if she was influenced by ghost story she heard as a young person. If you read and listen to enough of her interviews, she talks about these stories and the radio programs she was influenced by as a child.
