Jazz (novel)
Jazz is a 1992 historical novel by Pulitzer and Nobel Prize-winning American author Toni Morrison. The majority of the narrative takes place in Harlem during the 1920s; however, as the pasts of the various characters are explored, the narrative extends back to the mid-19th-century American South.
The novel forms the second part of Morrison's trilogy on African-American history, beginning with Beloved (1987) and ending with Paradise (1998). Jazz was Morrison’s most recently published work when she was awarded the 1993 Nobel Prize for Literature.
Morrison spent three years researching and reading historical records of the Harlem Renaissance such as "issues of every 'Colored' newspaper" for the year 1926.
A year after the release of Jazz Morrison was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. The official press release states that in the novel, "Morrison uses a device which is akin to the way jazz itself is played… The result is a richly complex, sensuously conveyed image of the events, the characters and moods."
