Recitatif by Toni Morrison

RecitatifRecitatif by Toni Morrison
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Narrated by: Zadie Smith and Bahni Turpin this short story written by Toni Morrison explores/lays out the story of 2 girls as youngsters meeting in an orphanage and they are bonded in their months together. After they leave, the reader meets them interacting as they run into each other. I love Bahni Turpin and she did not disappoint as the narrator but I was confused about Twyla and Roberta--their race and their experiences. I will be reading the story again for my Albright College Zoom Book Club and can't wait to discuss this story!
