I am interested in the topic of stories. It seems that everything about the book has a story and history, also everyone seems to have their point of view of the story. For example, Macon Dead and Ruth have a version of what happened to Ruth's dad. When Macon tells Milkman his version of the story Milkman seems feel closer to his dad. However, when Ruth tell her story to Milkman he just ends up confused. At this point he doesn't know what or who to believe. This eventually leads Milkman on a mission to find himself and the truth of his family's past. Therefore, this novel strongly revolves around the ideas of story and how they shape the believes and actions of people.
