TUITION: $15 before Oct. 5, $20 after

To honor Nobel prize winner, Toni Morrison, who died in 2019, this class will begin with an introduction/overview of her life and work and then focus on two of her beautiful, socially astute  “woke” novels, “The Bluest Eye” in the first class, “Song of Solomon”  in the second. 

Bonnie Lyons retired in May 2014 with emeritus status from the University of Texas in San Antonio. During her long academic career, she won three University-wide teaching awards and awards for research and creativity. She has published a book about Henry Roth, a book of interviews with fiction writers, two full-length books of poetry and three chapbooks. Her most recent book is WOW: Wonderful Old Women, a book of interviews with San Antonio women over 80.
