He shows a connection between nature and women, how both of them are oppressed yet they defy the norms of patriarchy and rise above it. Ahlawat points out how in The Bluest Eye nature and women are merged when the novel is divided into four seasons but totally opposite things happen, for example he says that spring is the time of renewal and rebirth but it becomes the time when Pecola gets raped. It is a way of showing how contradictory things happen even though they shouldn’t. He also explains the importance of nature in giving them courage and hope for a better life. Ahlawat says in Beloved nature serves as a healer, giving comfort to the miserable condition of the characters. They serve as a get away from all the mayhem inflicted on the Blacks. The scar of chokecherry tree symbolizes beauty as well as darkness of the humanity. To conclude, Ahlawat is of the view that if nature can destroy it can also heal and that is what it does in Toni Morrison’s
