Toni Morrison's Beloved: Not a Story to be Passed On


Beloved, Toni Morrison's Nobel Prize winning novel, is a masterfully written book in which the characters must deal with a past that perpetually haunts them.  This haunting, in the form of a twenty year old ghost named Beloved, not only stalks them in the spirit, but also in the flesh.  Beloved, both in story and in character hides the truth in simple ways and convinces those involved that the past never leaves, it only becomes part of who they are.  This contortion of truth does not allow any character to escape.  Each one hides and runs from the brutality of slavery, yet cannot escape it's heritage.  Set in the post-Civil War era of the rural Ohio back roads, each protagonist faces the fact that through Beloved's return they must deal with the ties of the past and the prosperity of the future.  And after dealing with those memories that don't let them go, they can move on with their lives.  Beloved, the ghostly character, drives this story of Sethe, Denver, and Paul D. to an exploding end of triumph and unity.
