BELOVED BY TONI MORRISON
RESEARCH QUESTIONS: What can the reader learn from Beloved’s appearance and how she behaves? More importantly, what can the reader learn later when she disappears and why does she do this?

THESIS STATEMENT: Beloved introduces the reader to the harsh consequences of slavery on African American people and their families, and the novel is an educational tool that illustrates the significance of the social and economic justice that is needed to right a wrong.
