The Bluest Eye

The bluest eye, written by Toni Morrison is a novel based upon the story of Pecola Breedlove, a black girl living in Ohio around 1940's.
Toni Morrison's style is very unique due to her use of many characters talking at the same time. She uses this style to show the readers the different viewpoints.
Up to three or more characters may be talking in the same chapter, and even in the same page.
Toni Morrison divided this novel into four parts, as the year, four stations.
 This is to show the transition of the novel and how it develops across the year.
