WHY FORM AND CONTENT SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE IN TONI MORRISON’S SULA. Traumatized narrative and interplay.

Abstract

The aim of this essay is to investigate the interplay between narrative form and content in Toni Morrison’s Sula, and demonstrate how this interaction is an important part of the creation of meaning in the novel. The study employs a structural-narratological method in the formal analysis. Trauma theory is employed in the analysis of the characters.
