About this listen
From the acclaimed Nobel Prize winner: Two girls who grow up to become women. Two friends who become something worse than enemies. This brilliantly imagined novel brings us the story of Nel Wright and Sula Peace, who meet as children in the small town of Medallion, Ohio.
Nel and Sula's devotion is fierce enough to withstand bullies and the burden of a dreadful secret. It endures even after Nel has grown up to be a pillar of the black community and Sula has become a pariah. But their friendship ends in an unforgivable betrayal—or does it end? Terrifying, comic, ribald and tragic, Sula is a work that overflows with life.
Critic Reviews
“Extravagantly beautiful. . . . Enormously, achingly alive. . . . A howl of love and rage, playful and funny as well as hard and bitter.” —The New York Times
“Exemplary. . . . The essential mysteries of death and sex, friendship and poverty are expressed with rare economy.” —Newsweek
“In characters like Sula, Toni Morrison’s originality and power emerge.” —The Nation

Beautiful Voice, Beautiful Story
So much gained from hearing it straight from Morrison. This is a beautiful story, and my life is richer from having listened to it.

Heartbreaking, Raw, but softly spoken
I starting listening to this once I heard about Toni's death. it hit so many raw nerves but in such a masterful way that you can't hit stop.
Sulas character will stick with me. she is a burning totem of power, so unmovable. hot and chilling. the only negative comment is The quiet narration by the author. still it made it all the more special to hear it in her own voice

Great story, Legendary narration!
Love this. The characters are so beautifully described. You can visualize them. It touches on so many topics - freedom, loneliness, good and evil.
So grateful for Toni Morrison’s sublime narration !
