What do these words have in common?
What is the difference between these words?
How do they fit Sethe's journey? Paul D's? Denver's? Beloved's?
Step 1: Take ten notecards, rip them neatly in half so they're smaller, and write a specific event from Parts 1 and 2 on each. If you're good at math, you'll notice that you need twenty events total.
Step 2: Manipulate them into you think you have them roughly in chronological order (in other words, the order in which they actually happened).
Step 3: Create a timeline with as many specific dates as possible. Leave a little space at the end for the events of Part 3.
Step 4: It would have been significantly easier for Morrison to write the book in chronological order or to simply include a few flashbacks. How would you describe the order/structure of this book? What might Morrison be up to here? How does the structure of the book relate to the prefix lesson we enjoyed at the beginning of class?
