À propos de cet audio
From the acclaimed Nobel Prize winner, a passionate, profound story of love and obsession that brings us back and forth in time, as a narrative is assembled from the emotions, hopes, fears, and deep realities of Black urban life. With a foreword by the author.
“As rich in themes and poetic images as her Pulitzer Prize–winning Beloved.... Morrison conjures up the hand of slavery on Harlem’s jazz generation. The more you listen, the more you crave to hear.” —Glamour
In the winter of 1926, when everybody everywhere sees nothing but good things ahead, Joe Trace, middle-aged door-to-door salesman of Cleopatra beauty products, shoots his teenage lover to death. At the funeral, Joe’s wife, Violet, attacks the girl’s corpse. This novel “transforms a familiar refrain of jilted love into a bold, sustaining time of self-knowledge and discovery. Its rhythms are infectious” (People).
"The author conjures up worlds with complete authority and makes no secret of her angst at the injustices dealt to Black women.” —The New York Times Book Review

“Wonderful. . . . A brilliant, daring novel. . . . Every voice amazes.” —Chicago Tribune
“She may be the last classic American writer, squarely in the tradition of Poe, Melville, Twain and Faulkner.” —Newsweek
“[A] masterpiece. . . . She has moved from strength to strength until she has reached the distinction of being beyond comparison.” —Entertainment Weekly

amazing story but many parts of book missing
Jazz is one of my all-time favourites reads by Miss Toni. I have read the book many times and when I saw there is an audiobook and one that Toni Morrison narrated i had to hear it. Now the stories most important parts are still within the story meaning that you don't have to worry about missing out on plot...the only thing is there are many small parts missing from the audio that is present in the book. I definitely enjoyed the listen but just wanted to point that small thing

Missing
There were so many missing parts. I tried to read the physical book while listening and it was clearly missing certain paragraphs and lines. Kinda disappointed in this audiobook but happy to hear Toni Morrison’s voice
