La libertad y el esfuerzo, dice Toni Morrison

Here freedom was not entertainment, like a carnival or a hoedown that you can count on once a year. Nor was it the table droppings from the entitled. Here freedom was a test administered by the natural world that a man had to take for himself every day. And if he passed enough tests long enough, he was king.

escribe Toni Morrison en Paradise, dándole forma a una fantasía de libertos y fugados; de quien sabe que la libertad es mitología blanca pero aun así intenta hacer algo de ella.
