![]() ![]() We’re constantly thrown into the events of the past and then returned back to the present. Many things that have happened in the book have really caught me by surprise when I least expected it. She gives herself away as if she doesn’t respect herself in my opinion.īeloved is a really meaningful and great book to read that has me hooked. Or maybe not because they believed she was “crazy” from an bias opinion.Īs for my classmates I want to know what you guys think about Sethe throwing her body around as if it’s water. Even when she only succeeded with killing Beloved the rest of them still could have got taken. I just wonder if all they all took were worth it in the end? Did it benefit Sethe that she killed Beloved? Was everything Beloved did to get close to Sethe worth it? Was Paul D really satisfied by being with Beloved and then trying to have a baby with Sethe? If Denver grew up with Beloved would she be a while different person and feel differently about a lot of things? If Sethe went about things differently they may all be slaves. And Beloved is just messy and a little off because she started the whole thing. I just think that’s disrespectful one because you shouldn’t go to a women’s child. I’m just not a fan of a person being with a person's “mother” and then being with their “child”. What honestly disturbs me is how Beloved slept with Paul D and how he allowed it to happen. She may act as if she doesn’t care about a lot of things, but I personally believe it all effects her deeply she just has a way of hiding it. I think she carries that weight on her shoulders everyday. I think she struggles with loving herself after she lost Beloved. She has the tendency to throw her body around as if it doesn’t mean anything. She is a loving character, but I don’t think she has that love for herself. And with Sethe I think her character is very interesting. She was never able to have that sisterly bond that she wanted due to beloved not being there. I feel like she never had a person that she can fully connect with and have that bond. Anyway I feel like Denver has always felt alone. I also just don’t understand the whole concept of Beloved just appearing like we all know that’s not possible. ![]() When it came to Beloved I felt like she is the type to be controlling and she will cancel out anything in the equation to get what she wants. When it came to the chapters I had a lot of mixed feelings. When you read books like that you never know what they are going to talk about next. Every chapter is kind of different and everything has it's own little twist to it. It was very disoriented and I kind like that in a way because it always keeps reader thinking. Pt of Beloved was different then any book I ever read.

Second, ask a question about the story to your classmates. What surprises you? What confuses or disturbs you? What symbolic aspects do you recognize? Answer any, all, or none of these questions what’s important is getting your thoughts out. What I’d like you to do in your blog post this week is to take some time to reflect on and write through some critical questions that Morrison brings up.įirst, share your initial thoughts/reactions/questions/observations about Part 1. We will spend time in class discussing some important aspects of Part 1, but we certainly don’t have the time to get to all of it. Part 1 of Beloved does exactly what Morrison intended it to do: it kidnaps the reader, tossing us into the same ruthless environment as its characters, lost and confused and hurt, wondering how we got here and where we’re supposed to go. ![]()
