Description:
In the ninth novel by Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison (BELOVED) the characters must face the oppression of a 17th-century form of slavery that had nothing to do with race, and everything to do with power and poverty. The protagonists of A MERCY are a motley crew of disenfranchised laborers--orphans, Native Americans, immigrants, and indentured servants--who must unite against the crushing weight of the injustices that formed the foundation of the United States, that led to the institution of slavery, and that to this day provide a vice-lock on the lives of the poor.
