Beloved- The spoiled brat!
Hi guys, I miss all of you already. I am sorry that I am writing in this font, but when I tried writing in the regular font, my writing was translated to hindi and I have no clue why that happened. Anyways, I hate Beloved. She is so creepy. How can she think about having sex with Paul D. when he is so much older than her. She also knows that Paul D. loves Sethe, who is her mother. I know that she is supposed to be a little child, but I feel that even little kids can tell that what Beloved forced Paul D. to do was immoral. It was good that Sethe killed Beloved when she was a child because if she was still alive in the story, she would've been older than Denver and she would've taken even worse actions than she has done as a ghost. I feel really sad for Denver because she is the one who ends up taking care of the rest of the family after Sethe falls ill. Even though Denver had no faults in the book, I feel that she suffered the most in the book. She was deprived of friends and relatives at such a young age. Her neighbors also scorn her for her mother's past actions and she has to bare her mother's burden for no reason. She even has to take care of Beloved, who does nothing but act like a spoiled brat in the family.
