    The connection amongst Twyla and Roberta in "Recitatif" is actually a connection amongst high contrast. Toni Morrison's story, "Recitatif" doesn't expressly arrange Twyla and Roberta in racial terms, yet it prods the peruser toward understood suppositions.

Her consideration in the "Recitatif" is to speak to the account of Twyla and Roberta and the contention of race on the recounting the story.
