In this essay, the novel Beloved, by Toni Morrison is observed using a working psychoanalytical approach. Story is observed as an important factor in engaging the reader on a personal level with the experience of trauma.

The resulting testimony of the novel that arises as the result of these processes is also observed. This essay concludes that Morrison’s use of
