‘“This ain’t sweet home. School teacher ain’t got em (165).”’ Sethe makes her child face torture for only a few minutes instead of several long years labouring at Sweet Home. Death serves by holding the position of haven, which is a considerable situation to be in rather than returning to Sweet Home, which represents hell. The school teacher symbolizes the devil, as he brings forth negativity by wanting to corrupt the lives of Sethe’s family members. Nonetheless, Sethe displays the characteristics of an angel as she brings positivity into her daughter’s life by eliminating all the evil that she would have had to encounter if she was alive. “Sethe could recognize only 75 printed words (half of which appeared in the newspaper clipping), but she

It hung there, small and alone (161).” I am predicting that Paul D must be very shocked or surprised as he does not muster to even place a pretend smile on his face. He confirms his assumption of Sethe murdering her own daughter. “It made him dizzy. At first he thought it was her spinning. Circling him the way she was circling around the subject (161).” Has Paul D considered that Sethe is not wanting to expose the truth or unveil her hidden secret because it may possibly tear apart their relationship? Does Paul D feel anxious for asking Sethe about actions because he is allowing her past to have an impact on their future? “The prickly, mean-eyed Sweet Home girl he knew as Halle’s girl was obedient (like Halle), shy (like Halle), and work-crazy (like Halle) (164).” Does this mean that Paul D himself, would have gone back to Sweet Home if he were in Sethe’s position? I can infer that he believes that it would be better to allow his children to get exploited by brutal white owners, rather than killing them. “‘Your love is too thick (164).”’ This concept makes me connect to science and how that thick blood leads to clots, which result in serious health conditions and possibly death. Paul D thinks Sethe is insane, her ways of approaching and defining love are not normal. However, he fails to understand that a mother’s responsibility to take care of her children is not only confined to holding their hand through each and every step of …show more content…
In regards to this, how long has Stamp Paid kept this clipping for? Why does he never end up throwing it away? I am both confused and surprised as to why he does not defend her despite that they hold a family friend bonding. I wonder what Stamp Paid will achieve by disclosing Sethe’s unfortunate past to Paul D. Stamp Paid most likely considers Sethe to be a dangerous women as does the rest the neighborhood around house 124. Is he simply trying to protect his friend or does he have any intentions of causing troubles in their relationship? “So Stamp Paid did not tell him how she flew, snatching up her children like a hawk on the wing; how her face beaked, how her hands worked like claws, how she collected them every which way…(157).” Stamp Paid probably has a strong attachment to children overall. I remember that he is closely attached to Denver. He picks up berries, despite he knows that he will experience scratches from thorns and insect bites in celebration of when she newly born. Moreover, he grasps Denver from Sethe when she has finished killing Beloved, in fear that she might be targeted next. I can infer that he is more for hurting yourself for the sake of your children, not the other way
