Seller's Description:
New. In original shrink-wrap. Taking a cue from Dante's Purgatorio, Jazz is considered by many to be Morrison's most difficult novel and, according to the author, embodies 'the modernity that jazz anticipated and directed, and...its unreasonable optimism. ' Its iconic first line 'Sth, I know that woman. ' came almost unconsciously from a long-fought battle to find the voice of the book's narrator, as Morrison registered her own frustration in what Morgan Parker calls 'a self-disgusted tooth-suck and petty pencil toss. ' Morrison herself recreates that tooth-suck on the audiocassette, which features packaging adapted from R. D. Scudellari's first edition design by Robert Anthony.
