Title of the paper : The Undertones of Monologue: A Critical Study of Toni Morrisons The Bluest Eye

Abstract: The plea to be heard triggered out of the silence has been projected through Pecola, a young child of African- American origin in Toni Morrisons The Bluest Eye. The essence of being abjected to abhorrence is the vision that the woman is always entitled. The institutionalisation of the concept of identity remains to be questioned. The compositions to feel, state or speak are a phenomenon that remains hidden. The paper explores the nuances of madness that triggers in human space where one element is preferred over the other on the basis of irregularities that includes silence as instructed. The ability to communicate oneself as Virginia Woolf propounded pleading for A Room of Ones Own has been elevated where, unlike the room, it is now the speech that one needs to initiate. The organic individual is submissive under the hegemony of the system that propagates the principle of power politics.
