I like marriage. The idea

Toni Morrison, the renowned American novelist and Nobel laureate, has explored the complexities of marriage in many of her works. In her novels, she delves into the intricacies of relationships, the power dynamics between partners, and the societal expectations that often shape marriages. While Morrison's portrayal of marriage is often fraught with tension and conflict, she also recognizes the potential for love, growth, and connection within the institution.

One of Morrison's most famous novels, "Beloved," examines the impact of slavery on the institution of marriage. Set in the aftermath of the Civil War, the novel follows the story of Sethe, a former slave who is haunted by the ghost of her deceased daughter. Throughout the novel, Morrison explores the ways in which slavery has distorted and destroyed the bonds between husbands and wives, as well as the ways in which love and resilience can ultimately triumph over oppression.
