I think it would have been better to introduce some more details about the life of the characters or their qualities and virtues. If I had to make a defect in the book, it would be that I have found too many characters with very little development. MacTeer or China, Poland, and Miss Marie. As secondary, I will simply name some of the ones I liked the most, without giving any details about them. The rest of the characters are secondary, although it is true that I would introduce it as the main one more. And the girlвЂ™s brother named Sammy, who is also not given all the relevance he should.ДЄlso important in the plot are Frieda and Claudia, two neighboring girls who do not discriminate against Pecola but join her, two very, very interesting characters that play a crucial role at the end of the plot. The mother figure, Polly Breedlove, mother of Pecola, is someone important even if she disappears soon from the plot after leaving the girl, being a very small Pecola. PecolaвЂ™s father is also a very important figure in the novel, his name is Cholly, and as we go along, we will discover more things about this character of black ethnicity that so many secrets hide. Such is the case of Pecola, that the girl herself looks ugly and therefore wants to reach the established standards of beauty, and have beautiful blue eyes, which gives the novel its title. The novel opens with something dark and dirty about Pecola, the girl that everyone hates and who they call ugly. The novel takes place in the American society of World War II (1939-1945), where discrimination and racism were explicitly manifested.ДЄs secondary issues, the author also delves into the demonization of the black race, the concept of imposed beauty, truncated childhood, and the status of women.

PecolaвЂ™s story shows the psychological wear and tear of a black girl who seeks acceptance in a society that devalues вЂ‹вЂ‹and discriminates against people in her class. Facing this heavy burden is Pecola, an eleven-year-old African-American girl in search of female identity.
