The pondering on the spiritual world of African Americans reflected in the book has affected a great number of American black people, including Barack Obama, the first colored president of the US. The brilliant book was written in the genre of bildungsroman, tracking the spiritual development of the protagonist Milkman, depicting all the discoveries he’s made through which he turns from a person who’s ignorant of the culture and past of his own people, just like a white man with black skin, into a mature adult who finally recovers the treasure of the black nation. In arranging Milkman’s journey of discoveries, Toni Morrison gradually reveals a mysterious yet fascinating picture of the history of Milkman’s family, and eventually leads him to a revelation of his cultural origin. This paper attempts to discuss the major discoveries made by Milkman and their underlying connotation and symbolic meaning.
