솔로몬의 노래

The recurring motif of flight feels deeply connected to themes of liberation and escape. I wonder what inspired Morrison to weave this imagery so prominently throughout the novel.

His journey to understand his family history resonated strongly with me, but I’m curious how others experienced that aspect of the story — did it evoke similar feelings of longing?

The lyrical interludes add depth but also challenge the flow of the story. Do they serve as a bridge to understanding or do they distract from the plot?
