The genius of fascism is that any political structure can host the virus and virtually any developed country can become a suitable home. Fascism talks ideology but it is really just marketing for power.

OBSERVATION: The March 15, 2026 edition of the Sunday New York Times had, as it always does, its magazine inside the Book Review section. And on this occasion, note the place in the Book Review featuring Toni Morrison, where the magazine was inserted and the cover of the magazine. Subliminal messaging, racism, mere coincidence, intentional, or all of the above? (This comes less than two months after Trump’s racism against the Obamas.)
You be the judge.

Song of Solomon
by Toni Morrison
From reknowned author, Toni Morrison, Song of Solomon explores the search for cultural identity and self-knowledge. Inspired by the African American folktale of enslaved Africans who escape bondage by flying back to Africa, the novel follows Macon “Milkman” Dead, a young man estranged from himself, his family, his community, and his ancestral roots. Though materially comfortable, Milkman is spiritually stagnant and emotionally disconnected. With the guidance of his unconventional aunt Pilate and the influence of his closest friend, Guitar Bains, he embarks on a journey—both physical and spiritual—that ultimately reconnects him to his heritage and awakens his sense of self-worth.
The novel spans more than thirty years and is divided into two distinct sections. Part I (Chapters 1–9) takes place in an unnamed Michigan town, likely Detroit. It traces Milkman’s life from birth to age thirty-two, portraying his aimless existence as he struggles between his father Macon’s materialistic values and Pilate’s grounding in tradition and community. These chapters are layered with flashbacks that reveal the family’s history: after their father was murdered for defending his land, Macon and Pilate fled their home. A later falling-out caused them to separate, and although they eventually settled in the same Michigan town, Macon refuses to acknowledge Pilate, believing she undermines his social status. This section concludes when Milkman decides to leave Michigan to search for what he believes is Pilate’s hidden gold—an inheritance his father insists rightfully belongs to him.
Part II (Chapters 10–15) begins with Milkman’s arrival in Danville, Pennsylvania, where his grandfather once established Lincoln’s Heaven, a thriving farm that became legendary after his violent death. When Milkman fails to find the gold there, he becomes intrigued by stories about his ancestors. His search leads him to the fictional town of Shalimar, Virginia, where he connects with his father’s ancestral community and uncovers the deeper, spiritual meaning of his inheritance. The novel closes with an ambiguous yet symbolic scene centered on Milkman’s final “flight” across Solomon’s Leap, suggesting transcendence, freedom, and reconciliation with his past.
We give Songs of Solomon
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Rating: 5 out of 5.Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison is a richly layered novel that blends coming-of-age storytelling with themes of identity, heritage, and freedom. Through the journey of Milkman Dead, Morrison explores the complexities of family history and the search for self in a way that feels both deeply personal and culturally expansive. Her prose is lyrical and symbolic, weaving elements of folklore and magical realism into a narrative that remains grounded in emotional truth. The novel challenges readers to consider how the past shapes the present, ultimately delivering a powerful meditation on belonging and self-discovery.
