Starting slow

Got the first three chapters of Beloved in.  It starts kind of slow, but a lot is going on.  Everyone is hiding something, and there is definitely too much cow fucking for my taste.  Just suffice it to say I will NEVER understand the male sex drive.

Other than that, I love the way Morrison writes.  She paints such a vivid picture with words, and although that may seem a strange statement, not very many authors, in my opinion, are able to do that well.  Her description of the hell that the ghost puts Sethe and Denver through is really quite vivid, and I can picture every moment.
