Toni Morrison in the preface to The Bluest Eye states the following: “One problem was [that] centering the weight of the novel’s inquiry on so delicate and vulnerable a character [as Pecola] could smash her and lead readers into the comfort of pitying her rather than an interrogation of themselves for the smashing. My solution – break the narrative into parts that had to be reassembled by the reader – seemed to me a good idea, the execution of which doesn’t satisfy me now. Besides, it didn’t work; many readers remain touched but not moved” (xii)
In your reading response, analyze Morrison’s ideas in relation to your own reading experience:

What do you think is the difference between being “touched” and “moved” that Morrison describes?
Do you agree that her formal experimentation did not work?
Why doesn’t Morrison want readers to pity Pecola – what does she want us to do instead?
Did your own responses to the novel contradict what Morrison wanted us to feel and think?
