The Bluest Eye

Lorain, Ohio, 1941. Eleven-year-old Pecola Breedlove prays for the one thing she knows will change her life, eyes as blue as Shirley Temple's. The year the marigolds in Lorain do not bloom, Pecola's life does change in unexpected and devastating ways. This vivid adaptation of Toni Morrison's Pulitzer Prize-winning debut novel is the heartrending story of three girls coming of age into a world that is equal parts beauty and ugliness, love and hate, triumph and tragedy.
