The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison – A Powerful Debut on Race, Beauty, and Identity
Published in 1970, The Bluest Eye marks the stunning debut of Nobel laureate Toni Morrison. Set in 1940s Ohio, the novel tells the heartbreaking story of Pecola Breedlove, a young Black girl who longs for blue eyes, believing they will make her beautiful—and lovable—in a world shaped by racism and colorism.

This seminal work remains a cornerstone of African American literature and is frequently studied in classrooms for its bold themes and literary craft.
