Speeding through that bumpy road towards Ithaca NY was an unforgettable experience in itself. I was amazed by endless acres of presumably dead and useless land. It all seemed too gloomy. The trees looked ancient‚ as if they had been there since the dawn of time. The palette was of an eternal fall. The cows

Do people get what they deserve in this world? I do not believe that they do. In some cases they do‚ but mostly people don’t get what they deserve. I have 3 reasons for believing this.

unspoken story of black people prior to and after the abolishment of slavery. Throughout the novel‚ the main characters -- Sethe‚ Paul D‚ Baby Suggs‚ Denver‚ and Beloved -- countervail an alien world that has stripped them of their humanity. The novel is a fractured history of slavery’s legacy as it delves into the “disremembered” sufferings of the black community that have been so facilely stashed away in a complacent state of national amnesia.

Writing doesn’t have to be political to be a good work although George Orwell argues that political purpose is necessary for a successful work. Fundamentally‚ I think Orwell’s opinion about good writing doesn’t leave any room for discussion because of his definition of being political.
