Thirty-eight years ago, women writer Toni Morrison who wrote Song of Solomon used similar type of writing skill. Her masterpiece Song of Solomon is regarded as a model of such literature. This novel blends themes of race and class with mythical and realistic genres. Morrison is taken for a magical realist writer who inherits the essence of this kind of literature. Morrison’s style of magic realism will be discussed in this paper.
According to Luo Chunxia, Morrison uses post-symbolism writing technique which absorbs the religious mystery and allusion to establish a symbolic mythology. She thinks the main line is that black people can fly. It’s clever for Morrison to combine the black people’s history and culture with the myths and folktales. |
