About this ebook
The Origin of Others (The Charles Eliot Norton Lectures): by Toni Morrison | Conversation Starters
The Origin of Others by Nobel prize- and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Toni Morrison is based on the author’s lecture entitled “The Literature of Belonging.” The book deals with the author’s insight into the effects that literature, history, politics, and personal experiences have had on American culture regarding race. Morrison investigates the role authors such as Ernest Hemingway and William Faulkner have on Americans perception of race.
