<b>PULITZER PRIZE WINNER -</b> <i><b>NEW YORK TIMES</b></i><b> BESTSELLER&#160;- A spellbinding novel that transforms history into a story as powerful as Exodus and as intimate as a lullaby. With a new afterword by the author.&#160;<br/><br/>This&#160;"brutally powerful, mesmerizing story" (<i>People) </i>is an&#160;unflinchingly look into the abyss of slavery, from the acclaimed Nobel Prize winner.</b><br/><br/>Sethe was born a slave and escaped to Ohio, but eighteen years later she is still not free.&#160;Sethe has too many memories of Sweet Home, the beautiful farm where so many hideous things happened. And Sethe's new home is haunted by the ghost of her baby, who died nameless and whose tombstone is engraved with a single word: Beloved.&#160;<br/><br/>"A masterwork.... Wonderful.... I can't imagine American literature without it." -John Leonard, <i>Los Angeles Times</i>

<b>From the acclaimed Nobel Prize winner: Two girls who grow up to become women. Two friends who become something worse than enemies. This brilliantly imagined novel brings us the story of Nel Wright and Sula Peace, who meet as children in the small town of Medallion, Ohio. </b><br/><br/>Nel and Sula's devotion is fierce enough to withstand bullies and the burden of a dreadful secret. It endures even after Nel has grown up to be a pillar of the black community and Sula has become a pariah. But their friendship ends in an unforgivable betrayal-or does it end? Terrifying, comic, ribald and tragic, <i>Sula </i>is a work that overflows with life.
