- Beloved is a Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Nobel laureate Toni Morrison. The novel, her fifth, is loosely based on the life and legal case of the slave Margaret Garner, about whom Morrison later wrote in the opera Margaret Garner (2005). The book's epigraph reads: "Sixty Million and more," by which Morrison refers to the estimated number of slaves who died in the slave trade. In 1998 the novel was adapted into a film of the same name starring Oprah Winfrey. A survey of writers and literary critics conducted by The New York Times found Beloved the best work of American fiction of the past 25 years; it garnered 15 of 125 votes, finishing ahead of Don DeLillo's Underworld (11 votes), Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian (8) and John Updike's Rabbit series (8). The results appeared in The New York Times Book Review on May 21, 2006. Time Magazine included the novel in its TIME 100 Best English-language Novels from 1923 to 2005.
- Beloved qui veut dire "bien-aimé" est un roman de Toni Morrison paru en 1987 raconte l'histoire de Sethe, une ancienne esclave, hantée par le fantôme de sa fille.
- Amatissima (titolo originale Beloved) è un romanzo della scrittrice afroamericana Toni Morrison premio Nobel per la letteratura nel 1993. Il romanzo, che venne pubblicato nel 1987 e vinse il premio Pulitzer nel 1988, prende lo spunto da un fatto di cronaca realmente accaduto e riportato in un articolo pubblicato nel 1855 che la scrittrice trova nel periodo in cui sta curando l'antologia intitolata "The Black Book" dove sono raccolti i documenti di trecento anni di storia afroamericana e che testimonia, attraverso atti di vendita, fotografie, ritagli di giornale, poesie, canti e quilt, le condizioni della comunità afroamericana e la loro cultura. L'articolo riporta la notizia che una schiava, Margaret Garner, era fuggita dal Kentucky e quando si rende conto che sta per essere ricatturata uccide la figlia perché non passi attraverso gli orrori della schiavitù. Amatissima, come scrive Franca Cavagnoli"... è dedicato agli oltre sessanta milioni di schiavi morti durante il Middle Passage, la traversata dell'Atlantico compiuta dalle navi negriere".
