| المستخلص: | This paper aims at examining the theme of journey of going back to roots in Toni Morrison's novel Tar Baby. Afro-American literature reflects the use of historical memory in forming a distinct genre of literature dealing with migration and its impact on the society and individual. Morrison is one of the most prominent novelists who profoundly dealt with such a theme of quest. This quest was for the ideal place to be settled in. Morrison, in her migration narrative, shows that ancestors, elders of the family pass on the qualities and assumptions that are necessary for survival. The main characters namely Valerian, Jadine and Son, who, via intensive experiences, came to realize the true meaning of living happily once they could achieve the reconciliation between the past and the present so that they can live happy lives in the twentieth century. |
