Celebrating the Senses
Sensuality is at the center of Toni Morrison's writing. In "Celebrating the Sense" Katharina Gutmann gives a critical analysis of how Morrison uses her character's sensual orientation to present the culture clash between euro- and afrocentric elements in the African American community. These characters are torn between authenticity and assimilation into mainstream American culture. Gutmann's studiy merges feministic with the scientific aspects of sensualitiy, and opens new dimensions to appreciating African American literature.
