Toni Morrison/Beloved

Abstract: A 15 page analysis of the 1988 Pulitzer Prize winning book, Beloved, by Toni Morrison. Unlike traditional narrative techniques, there is no attempt in Beloved to deliver a chronological retelling of the protagonist's life as a slave. Rather Morrison uses the raw material of Sethe's life as the clay from which she sculpts the imagery that allows the reader to enter into Sethe's psychological landscape. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
