really liked it

If you’re a literature enthusiast or just simply bookish, you will enjoy this seductive look at Toni Morrison essentially at work as an editor. Her take no prisoners approach to editing and her no tea for the fever path of dealing with authors. I love how Dana Williams allows the reader to sit next to Toni Morrison from acquiring a book to celebrating its publication. We are front row to tensions, disagreements over jacket covers and copy, intimate exchanges and compelling authors to deliver promised manuscripts. It’s a delightful tour of the publishing process, with the inimitable Toni Morrison as capable, competent captain! Kudos to Dana A. Williams for a job well done.
