Reading Sula as a collective felt like holding sacred text. Morrison’s exploration of Black womanhood, friendship, grief, and rebellion led us into deep discussion about what it means to be “good” versus “free.” The writing is sharp and poetic, and every reread reveals something new. For many of us, Sula didn’t just challenge us — it affirmed us.
Reading Sula feels like a rites of passage as a woman. This book has some heavy themes and wasn’t the easiest to read but I was left feeling changed for the better. Sula is meant to be studied. I’ll be musing on this work for awhile.
