Abstract

In our article we argue that, in Beloved, Morrison’s narrative technique employs the rural environment and this enigmatic house as potent metaphors for the inescapable burden of history and the complexity of memory. As we traverse the terrain of Morrison’s literary landscape, we explore how these sites of traumatic memory serve as powerful tools for engaging with and confronting the past. We highlight the critical importance of recognizing and reckoning with the painful past, ultimately inviting readers to confront their own relationship with history and memory.
