Beloved is a great novel that takes us through a shocking journey to one of the most horrifying episodes in American history. It provides us with an insight into the history of slavery, thereby enabling us to approach predominant racist attitudes and practices in a more well-informed manner. This research sheds light on the protagonist of the novel Sethe who is a former slave and a mother of four children. The analysis of her character demonstrates the harmful and destructive effects of slavery on the nature of her relationship with her children. The aim of this paper is to examine the physical and psychological scars of slavery that have pushed Sethe to commit infanticide and to destroy the image of motherhood.
