Jazz blazes with an intensity more usually found in tragic poetry of the past…. Morrison’s voice transcends colour and creed and she has become one of America’s outstanding post-war writers Guardian Joe Trace in his fifties, door-to-door salesman of Cleopatra beauty products, erstwhile devoted husband shoots dead his lover of three months, the impetuous, eighteen-year-old Dorcas. At the funeral, his determined, hard-working wife, Violet, who is given to stumbling into dark mental cracks, tries with a knife to disfigure the corpse. Passionate and profound, Jazz brings us back and forth in time, in a narrative assembled from the hopes, fears and realities of black urban life.
