The "tree" on her back is her scar of the past. ]]> 2017-01-24 20:54:51 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149172228 rios_i3 https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149173896 Others would describe Sethe as heavy chested and has a rough texture due to her scares from decades past. ]]> 2017-01-24 21:02:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149173896 ulloaaldape_l https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149174634
Sethe feels excited to see Paul D. because there is finally someone else that is from Sweet Home, where she was from, in her house rather than just her and Denver. ]]> 2017-01-24 21:05:42 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149174634 rios_i3 https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149174656 Sethe, 25, Sethe is recovering from running away from slavery. She lives in a "haunted" house which lingers with the spirit of her daughter, Baby Suggs. Sethe is well built with large breasts and rough texture due to her past beatings as a slave.]]> 2017-01-24 21:05:52 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149174656 rios_i3 https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149175466 Other characters look at Sethe and feel like she can do better and leave her haunted house. Paul D is an example, he believes she should be removed from the presence of the ghost. She is not in any complaint with any characters.]]> 2017-01-24 21:09:56 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149175466 rios_i3 https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149218256 Sethe is in a situation where she can not yet find satisfaction from her peers and daughter. She is pressured to move somewhere better, she is aware of the comments and is confused as to what to do. Coming from slavery the resolution is slim but manageable. ]]> 2017-01-25 04:10:45 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149218256 ulloaaldape_l https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149219854 Sethe is very demanding and prepared when a tough situation hits her. Majority of the time she manages to figure it out because of the past she lived through. She had a tough past which prepared her to approach a situation with an open mind to search for a solution. ]]> 2017-01-25 04:34:58 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149219854 ulloaaldape_l https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149220455 Durable, clever, unfortunate, isolated, welcoming, authoritative, conservative, indignant, distressed, reserved. ]]> 2017-01-25 04:44:29 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149220455 ulloaaldape_l https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149221148 She has had and still has several sexual relationships, or in other words has been raped before.

It is stated when Morrison states "It took him a while to realize that his legs were not shaking because of worry, but because the floorboards were and the grinding, shoving floor was only part of it"(Morrison 21) "The House itself was pitching." (Morrison 21) "While down on all fours, as though she were holding her house down on the ground" (Morrison 21). These quotes demonstrate how Sethe with force and resistance held back a spiritual force from tearing down her house. ]]> 2017-01-25 20:37:02 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149462879 ulloaaldape_l https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149463287 "I've never seen it and never will. A chokecherry tree. Trunk, branches, and even  leaves. But that was eighteen years ago. Could have cherries too now for all I know" (Morrison18). Sethe exaggerates as she describes the scars on her back. There is not literally a tree growing, it is a symbol that represents all the scars she has from when she was beaten when in slavery. ]]> 2017-01-25 20:39:15 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149463287 ulloaaldape_l https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149465908 "And the wrought-iron maze he had explored in the kitchen like a gold miner pawing through pay dirt was in fact a revolting clump of scars. Not a tree, as she said"(Morrison 25). This simile is a thought Paul D has as he is looking at the "tree" Sethe said was on her back. The purpose of this simile is to compare how he explored the "tree" to the way a gold miner paws through pay dirt. As he observes the "tree" he realizes that they are actually a clump of scars.   ]]> 2017-01-25 20:52:12 UTC https://padlet.com/rios_i3/u1l7cvyj606x/wish/149465908
