Paper Summary:

This paper is an analysis of Tony Morrison's use of numbers in her work, "Beloved." She is known for using a lot of symbolism to get the reader thinking and to draw a picture that words could never describe. "Beloved" is a perfect example with all the numbers used and the meaning of those numbers.

From the Paper:

"Symbolism is a necessary part of all literature, helping the author get their point across and communicate beyond words. Symbols force the reader to think and delve into the author's mind to truly understand what lies within. Toni Morrison proves to be a master with her unique and diverse use of symbols and ideas. In her novel, "Beloved," numbers are woven into the plot, becoming a significant part of the story, and expressing more than mere words ever could."
