I have read several of her works and they resonated with me enough that I was affected at least a little by the news of her passing a couple of years ago.

My immediate thought was "The singer for The Doors, right?"

so I voted the fourth option...

2.5 kinda? I'd have guessed author which is correct, but I wasn't terribly confident. Voted 3 though.

Congrats to BKSheikah, who knows more about years than anyone else.

I knew of her and would recognize a photo of her, but I would not be able to name a single novel she wrote.

Me too lol

First I thought of Jim Morrison, then Toni Braxton, then I realized I don't know who Toni Morrison is.

The only thing I know of her is Beloved, which I had to read in High School, and it was utterly despised by everyone in class as arguably the worst book school had ever made us read.

...And that book won a Pulitzer, so...

I was about to vote wrong until I realized I was thinking of Tony Robbins, who I only know about from Family Guy.

So 3 because

Around 2. I could have told you she was a famous and celebrated author... but would have blanked on naming any of her works.

Upon looking her up, I don't recognize anything she's written

Yeah? Sounds like a hell of a story from the synopsis.

It's not a pleasant read, so I'm not surprised high schoolers don't like it. I also could imagine several high school teachers being unequipped to teach it.

It's an extremely good book though.

Wrote The Bluest Eye and Beloved, and is considered one of the all-time great American authors. That said, I haven't read any of her work, and that includes in high school.

I voted 4. If I've heard of her before, then I certainly didn't remember.

Also thought of Morrissey.
