Author's eighth novel. "Love is or it ain't. Thin love ain't love at all." An exploration of the different aspects of love – more specifically, the love six disparate women feel for the rich and enigmatic Bill Cosey, and his love for a mysterious woman from his past. Winner of the 1993 Nobel Prize for Literature. "It's a dense, dark star of a novel...with Morrison writing at the top of her game." –David Gates, Newsweek
