Through this two week, I decided to change the book I read. Because I thought the last book was too difficult to me. The book now I am reading is named The Bluest Eyes. It was written by Toni Morrison and originally published in 1970. My classmate introduced me this book, and borrows me the book. Toni Morrison is an American author and Nobel Prize recipient. This is her first novel, talking about racial hatred and historical memory.
The story focus on an 11-year-old black girl named Pecola Breedlove. Pecola's father drinks, her mother is distant, and two of them often beat each other. Pecola believes that if she had blue eyes, she would be loved and her life would get better. I think this book can make us thinking about the issue of racial and racial equality. I wish I can keep reading and learn something from this book.
