4) Autumn in The Bluest Eye

Autumn section is the first section of book. In this section we meet with MacTeer family, Breedloves family, Henry, China, Poland and Miss Marie. These people have mutual point in this book; they are black. Macteer and Breedloves family are the main character of this book. MacTeer Family consists of Mr and Mrs Macteer, Claudia who is nine years old and she is the narrator of the book, and Frieda who is 10 year old. Mr Henry is a te roomer of this family and he smells nice. The Breedloves consists of Mrs Breedloves who is called Pauline, Cholly who is the fatheri Sammy who is 14 years old son and Pecola who 11 years old doughter. Chine, Poland and Miss Marie are the whores who live above The Breedloves' apartment and Pecola is thier friend. Additionaly, we can see the describing of Breedloves' apartmen and some detail about the Breedloves family in this section. detail about this family shows us like that Cholly and Pauline who are the father and mother of Breedlove family argued all the time beacuse Cholly came home as drunk because of money issue.

Also, book mentioned about uglyness in this setion. These people ar black so the believe they are ugly. We can see that in different part of thşs section. Firstly, Claudia doe not like her doll because her doll has white skind and blonde hair. She associates beauty with these physical characteristic. additionally, we can see this opinion when we read about Breeloves family. They believe they are ugly because the are poor and black. I said Cholly and Pauline argued and when they argued Pecoline becomes sad and she thinks that if she has blue eyes, she will be beautiful and nobody argues. So, she ate Mary Jane which is the candy. This candy shapes like girl that has blonde hair and blue eyes. Pecola eats this candy because when she eats this candy, she will be women who has blue eyes and blonde hair.
