Sula by Toni Morrison

NutmegNutmeg
edited March 2009 in - Reading
after finishing Dubliners in Literature we started on Sula.
I don't like it. Not just the storyline but her whole style. The character of Shadrack seems very random and pointless. the main character of Sula is only really introduced in about chapter 4 or something. And i just cannot read it. i should have finished it in an afternoon easily. But 3 weeks on i still have not finished it! i've decided this will probably be the unit i don't actually write an essay on (we only need to do 4 units and tehy give us 5...just in case we fail one!)

anyone have any thoughts on this book?

    Never read it, but I did find that with books I couldn't read easily, a taped version of them could get me into it enough to go back and read. Is that worth a try for you, Jemma?

    i think it would be worse listened to... but thanks for the idea.
