Toni Morrison: Recitative
With the story of the two women Twyla and Roberta –, one white, the other black –, the Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison exposes race as a social construct. Because she removes »all racialising codes« and so it remains unclear throughout the entire narrative which of the two protagonists is black and which is white – the reader or listener is forced to make their own observations and draw their own conclusions, and to convince themselves of their own prejudices against blacks and whites.
