The Bluest Eye
by Toni Morrison
General Interpretation (1/12/2006)
In all, I found the bluest eye to be a profound book. Toni Morrision packs the book with literary symbolism, which is good, however at times it is somewhat overwhelming. It's the kind of book you have to go back and read, or even research her meaning behinf the symbolism. Young readers, most likely would have a hard time reading this book, because the one needs to do an interpretive anaylisis to thouro0ughly grasp the concept. However the change of narritive sequence,was something I didn't understand at first but later I I realize Morrision used this literary device, to understand the root of Pecola's problem.
