Scene Summary and Context
In Toni Morrison's novel Beloved, the story unfolds in the aftermath of slavery, where Sethe, a former enslaved woman, lives with her family on a farm called 124. The house is haunted by a restless spirit, believed to be the ghost of Sethe's daughter. The atmosphere is tense and eerie, filled with memories of trauma and loss. As the story progresses, strange occurrences and inexplicable phenomena deepen the sense of supernatural presence. Morrison employs vivid descriptions and symbolic phrases such as 'the shadow that lingers' and 'the whispering walls' to evoke a chilling ghost story setting. The narrative explores themes of memory, trauma, and the supernatural, blurring the lines between reality and spirits from the past.
