SUMMARY:Connecting Through Literature: Classic American Short Stories Session 4
DESCRIPTION:Online Discussion – Short Story: “Recitatif” by Toni Morrison \nDescription from Wikipedia: \n      “Recitatif” is Toni Morrison’s first published short story. It was initially published in 1983 in Confirmation: An Anthology of African American Women\, an anthology edited by Amiri Baraka and Amina Baraka\, and is the only short story written by the acclaimed novelist. The story was reissued as a stand-alone book\, introduced by Zadie Smith\, published in February 2022. \n“Recitatif” is a story in racial writing\, as the race of Twyla and Roberta are debatable. Though the characters are clearly separated by class\, neither is affirmed as African-American or White. Morrison has described the story as “the removal of all racial codes from a narrative about two characters of different races for whom racial identity is crucial.” \nRequest this text through the PSU Libraries catalog here. \nRegister to receive the Zoom link the week of the event. Please add to your own calendar. \n \n\nThe Connecting Through Literature Book Club’s Classic American Short Stories series is a collaboration between the Harrell Health Sciences Library and Department of Humanities. Join in on one\, a few\, or all of the discussions in the series as suits your time and interest. You do not even need to have read the story beforehand to listen in on the conversation – are welcome.\n \n\nContact edonne@pennstatehealth.psu.edu if you would like to receive email updates for all of this year’s discussions.\n \n\nLearn more here.
