Ameerika kirjandus alates I maailmasõjast kuni tänapäevani.
Paul D the lover of Sethe (the mother) realises that Beloved may not
be a human after all because she has a strang shine around her, she actually uses her mothers
sources, her energy. At first as revenge and later because she never got something like that
when she was small, she was killed as a baby. S and PD become alienated from their group of
society, so Denver has to earn the living for the family. But in the end the community comes
to the familys house to get rid of the gohst. They recreat the scene how Beloved was killed
and that forces her to leave. It's about gender politics. A slave woman had no control over her
body. The masters produced slaves for free. The black women didnät have the chance to
marry, their masters had to give them permission. The author shows freedom is to be free for
desire, slaves did not have that. Beloveds ghost represents desire that can never be fulfilled. A
metaphore for guilt and grief
