1) Why does Baby Suggs stop preaching and start focusing on color? How was she "proven a liar"?
2) What is it that eventually divides Paul D and Sethe? Why does Sethe willingly say goodbye to him? What motif, ever present in the novel, underscores this insult?
3) Is Sethe's love "too thick"?
4) We discussed already how we might interpret 124 as a gothic symbol for Sethe's troubled interior, a representation of her haunted past that continues to plague her present existence. Looking at it another way -- perhaps more universally allegorical -- what might 124 and its "ghost" symbolize? How does 124 relate to all of us?
