Three courses on Toni Morrison's novels in three spring semesters: 2021, 2022, and 2023

As I noted the other day, I'm teaching a seminar this term on Toni Morrison's Middle Novels, that is, "Beloved" (1987), "Jazz" (1992), and "Paradise" (1998). This is the continuation of a course I taught last spring on Morrison's Early Novels: "The Bluest Eye" (1970), "Sula" (1973), "Tar Baby" (1977), and "Song of Solomon" (1981). Next spring, I'm planning on teaching Morrison's Late Novels: "Love" (2003), "A Mercy" (2008), "Home" (2012), and "God Help the Child" (2015). I have one student taking the second course who also took the first; as she might be done with her MA before next spring, I'll be the one who's participated in all three seminars.
