Synopsis
In the ninth novel by Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison (BELOVED) the characters must face the oppression of a 17th-century form of slavery that had nothing to do with race, and everything to do with power and poverty. The protagonists of A MERCY are a motley crew of disenfranchised laborers--orphans, Native Americans, immigrants, and indentured servants--who must unite against the crushing weight of the injustices that formed the foundation of the United States, that led to the institution of slavery, and that to this day provide a vice-lock on the lives of the poor. Selected as one of the New York Times 10 Best Books of 2008.

Publisher's Note
In exchange for a bad debt, an Anglo-Dutch trader takes on Florens, a young slave girl, who feels abandoned by her slave mother and who searches for love--first from an older servant woman at her master's new home, and then from a handsome free blacksmith--in an evocative novel set against late seventeenth-century America, by the Nobel Prize-winning author of Beloved. 300,000 first printing.

Industry reviews
"[Toni Morrison's] astonishing new novel, A MERCY, has both X-ray eyes and telepathic powers, not to mention tree rings, ice caps, pottery clocks, carbon clouds, a long memory, and a short fuse."
 (11/01/2008)

"A MERCY conjures up the beautiful, untamed, lawless world that was America in the 17th century with the same sort of lyrical, verdant prose that distinguished [BELOVED]."
 (11/03/2008)

"Morrison's unflinching narrative is all the more powerful for its relative brevity; it takes hold of the reader and doesn't let go until the wrenching final-page crescendo." (starred review)
 (09/15/2008)
