SyRiNA:

The first chapter of the book Beloved, points out the main characters in the story. There names are Sethe, Baby Suggs, Howard, Buglar, Denver, Paul D. Garner, && Mrs. Garner. I notice that the speaker reminisces alot about the past, such as when Sethe was a slave && lived on the Sweet Home plantation. Sethe is no longer a slave though, she lives with her daughter, Denver, in a house nobody wants to visit. It is a haunted house on Bluestone road, a house that is haunted by Sethe's other daughter, who was murdered. The house shakes && trembles, it does things unlike most houses, but it is not the house. it is the ghost of Sethe's two-year old daughter. "it's not evil, it's sad," Sethe says, referring to the ghost. Even Sethe's sons, Howard && Buglar ran away from the house. Now Denver wants to move away from the house, but her mom says NO! Will she ever change her mind?! Maybe her old friend from the plantation, Paul D. Garner, will change her mind.
