By Pulitzer
Prize winning author Toni
Morrison (her 5th book). A story about a woman who is haunted
by her life in slavery and painful memories and the circumstances
of the violent death of her daughter, Beloved. Oprah Winfrey
plays Sethe, who slashes her infant daughter's throat rather
than let her grow up a slave and then is haunted by the child's
grown-up ghost (Thandie Newton).
