"Toni Morrison and the Geopoetics of Place, Race, and Be/longing" - Marilyn Sanders Mobley - is a horrible (academic) title. When the talk gets to "Beloved" and why there is a ghost, my attention really perked up. Vanity being that thing where one's crazier ideas get validated by people far smarter.
Anyway, if you are a reader or admirer of Morrison, this is better than it sounds, the speakers obviously admire Morrison, and their enthusiasm for the woman and her works shines through. But since I am also one of those people who think Morrison is a great writer, I may be biased.
