Abstract EN
The present paper focuses on female identity formation in Toni Morrison's the Bluest Eye (1970) and Sula (1973).
It examines the black African women protagonists' struggle to find a space for themselves within their families and their communities as well in order to build female social and political identities.
The article attempts to examine the main characters' ways of forming self-concept in the face of race and abuse.
It analyzes the female character in the two narratives and discusses the effect of gender and constraints of tradition on women, it further tries to show that those black female protagonists follow womanistic ideas conduct to cope with their problems and eventually survive.
