Beloved Stream of Consciousness Analysis
Reread the four SOC sections in “Book Two,” doing the following:
- What appears to be Sethe’s primary preoccupation in her SOC section (the first)?
- What appears to be Denver’s primary preoccupation in her SOC section (the second)?
- As we did with “Flies,” chart Beloved’s section (the third) according to patterns you identify in the piece as you read. You should start with an annotation of the passage, then categorize images and make lists. Finally, looking at your lists, what conclusions can you draw about Beloved and her role in the novel?
- The fourth and final section incorporates all three voices. To what end? Why does Morrison repeat “You are mine,” or some variation of this phrase, so many times in the section?
