Toni Morrison’s 2008 novel is posited in the familiar world of slavery in America, and within this the author masterfully weaves an evocative story of a mother and a daughter. Much like her acclaimed novel Beloved, A Mercy traces the story of a mother who lets go of her daughter to save her, and the daughter who never really gets over it till she identifies the ‘cruel act’ as merciful.
