Hailed as the most suspenseful and compelling novel in decades, PRESUMED INNOCENT brings to life our worst nightmare: that of an ordinary citizen facing conviction for the most terrible of all crimes. It's the stunning portrayal of one man's all-too-human, all-consuming fatal attraction for a passionate woman who is not his wife, and the story of how his obsession puts everything he loves and values on trial--including his own life. It's a book that lays bare a shocking world of betrayal and murder, as well as the hidden depths of the human heart. And it will hold you and haunt you...long after you have reached its shattering conclusion.

by Toni Morrison · Knopf

Toni Morrison prétend être entrée en littérature par effraction. Pourtant, en 1993, elle devient la huitième femme et le premier écrivain noir américain couronné par le prix Nobel. C'est en 1988 qu'elle reçoit une première consécration - le prestigieux prix Pulitzer - pour son cinquième roman, Beloved. " Beloved est une inscription gravée sur une tombe : le nom d'un fantôme. Celui d'une petite fille égorgée par sa mère, une esclave noire évadée d'une plantation en 1870. Un crime commis au nom de l'amour et de la détresse pour que l'enfant ne retombe pas aux mains du maître. A travers la malédiction d'un bébé qui revient hanter sa mère, le roman de Toni Morrison conte la folie de l'esclavage bien plus puissamment que les Racines les plus noires. " Christophe Tison, Glamour, 1990
