Abstract
Beloved, an acclaimed novel by Toni Morrison, explores and depicts in detail the tragic destiny of slaves, especially slave mothers. This paper examines the horrors of being a mother in the times of slavery, describing it through the main characters of Sethe, Denver, Beloved and Baby Suggs. Starting with a historic portrayal of what it meant to be a mother and a slave at the same time, the paper continues with analyzing the relationships between different characters in order to illustrate the horrors that slavery brought upon motherhood. Not only does Beloved give the idea of how important being a mother is, but it also offers an insight into the world where mothers went through enormous pain, suffering, and sexual exploitation to save their children from the same destiny even though it might not have been morally acceptable.
