Morrison’s Exploration of Morality Within the Anti-Community Framework

 In the majority of Morrison’s novels, the portrayal of black communities is positive, but in Sula , the community is depicted as fractured and antagonistic. Within this anti-community narrative framework, Morrison conducts a literary experiment, delving deep into our familiar notions of family and morality. This paper thoroughly examines Morrison’s anti-community setting in her novels, analyzes the reasons and internal dynamics of such communities, and identifies the conveyed perspectives on family and morality within specific contexts.
