Abstract

Toni Morrison has shed light on the experience of black women for generations, as have numerous other African American female writers. Black women have used literature to highlight the ugly aspects of slavery, the whiteness of Jim Crow America, and the achievements of the feminist movements. Black female authors, including novelists, poets, journalists, playwrights, essayists, social commentators, and feminist theorists, have developed extraordinary strategies for educating, enlightening, and inspiring readers of all ages and races. The Bluest Eye, Sula, and Beloved by Toni Morrison highlight how contradictory ideals of goodness are imposed on three specific black women by white culture, black culture, and history. Readers are inspired and guided by the black female characters' struggles to come up with a potential response. Morrison's novels are frequently seen as portraying something cherished, lost, and familiar. Professional and personal development is facilitated by her capacity to write for black women and about black women in a progressive and practical manner. Morrison's sensitivity of the black female voice is best demonstrated in the books The Bluest Eye, Sula, and Beloved. This Study explores the discourse of Feminine Sensibility in select Novels of Toni Morrison. Morrison transforms the reader's perspective to provide space for genuine empathy, a literary moment that encourages consideration and reflection.
