Was incredibly sad to hear this this morning. Such a devastating loss. One of the most important authors of the 20th century ... if not ever.
I’ve only read Beloved, in a high school class. I really ought to get around to reading more of her work.

Only read "Beloved", which was very good. As many others, she's on the list of authors whose other work(s) I want to checkout eventually.
Certainly a very important author and voice, whom especially Non-Afro-Americans should read to widen their horizon.

Very sad news. I've never read Beloved, but I read Song of Solomon two years ago and I liked it quite a lot. She's a great writer, and her importance for african-american literature is undeniable.
