How does Toni Morrison use language to represent race? Answering this question through literary criticism and linguistic research, this book shows how Morrison's language reflects the souls of black folk in The Bluest Eye and Beloved. The book focuses on the way in which Morrison forces language to reveal what cannot be spoken by a "black" grammar. To achieve the breaking of this silence, Morrison uses rhetoric, voice, and narrative structures not conventionally used to achieve the effect of "black English." Students and teachers of Toni Morrison's novels and black English will find this book useful.

reviewed Black Looks and Black Acts: The Language of Toni Morrison in the Bluest Eye and Beloved on June 03, 2015 Black Looks and Black Acts: The Language of Toni Morrison in the Bluest Eye and Beloved
On the plus side, Morgan's book was a pretty quick read, and there's plenty of information for someone who has a limited biographical sketch of the Beats. On the minus side, the writing is wooden (particularly noticeable in a book about dynamic writers), and Morgan never really makes a convincing argument for how the Beats changed America (or why they're particularly important, for that matter). Overall, it was a "meh" read for me.
