I already have a copy of this book in my collection. I purchased this copy from a thrift store for bookcrossing. It is a trade paperback in quite good condition. Please note that the cover art differs from that pictured above.

From the Publisher(from the chapters.ca website)
Staring unflinchingly into the abyss of slavery, this spellbinding novel transforms history into a story as powerful as Exodus and as intimate as a lullaby. Sethe, its protagonist, was born a slave and escaped to Ohio, but eighteen years later she is still not free. She has too many memories of Sweet Home, the beautiful farm where so many hideous things happened. And Sethe’s new home is haunted by the ghost of her baby, who died nameless and whose tombstone is engraved with a single word: Beloved. Filled with bitter poetry and suspense as taut as a rope, Beloved is a towering achievement.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

I didn't even know that the Hillhurst-Sunnyside Community center had a book exchange shelf until I saw release notes from another Calgary Bookcrosser. I popped by today and was lucky enough to catch a couple bookcrossing books while I dropped off 3 on the book exchange shelf.
I hope whoever picks up this book enjoys it!
