- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Morrisons interrogation of the functionality of separateness, exclusivity and displacement in searching for utopia or "paradise" is truly informative. "Ruby" is a must-read, especially considering the current climate where we are barrages with a constant attack on the legitimacy of black experiences and lives. This interview with the renowned author gives us a chance to garner a deeper understanding of her intentions with this piece. A definite recommendation.
