Beminde by Toni Morrison
Set in the years after the Civil War, this novel follows an escaped enslaved woman whose household is haunted by the ghost of the daughter she killed to spare her from a life in bondage; when a mysterious young woman arrives, buried memories and community secrets erupt, forcing reckonings with trauma, motherhood, and the legacy of slavery. Through lyrical, fragmentary storytelling it probes how personal and collective memory shape identity and the painful work of survival and healing.
