A wonderful book, much easier to read and understand than many people think. If you have been scared off from reading this because you have heard it is hard to comprehend, then get over it. In fact, I think the book is much easier, and more enjoyable, than the movie with Oprah Winfrey. I'm sure the screenwriters did their best, but it's tough to make a movie of a novel where most of the action happens in flashbacks.
To fully enjoy this novel, just ignore the whole question of whether Beloved is real or not. Every major character believes she is the dead daughter come back to life, so you should too.
