Question

What role does this friendship play in nel and sula’s lives and what point is morrison making about the role of life-long friendshipsin the formation of identity?

Answer 1

Growing up friends with Nel and Sula was advantageous for both of them. Nel and Sula were fortunate to meet because they each have their soul match. They both had "remote mothers and unfathomable fathers" as parents. In their interactions with their mothers, both daughters lack affection.

Friendship play

Both Sula and Nel's fathers are deceased, and Nel's father is currently at sea, thus they are unable to experience this affection in their ties with their fathers. They discover the love they require in one another. They mothered each other through their bond.

They started supporting one other and figuring out what each other needed in their lives because they couldn't find the support they needed from their families.

long friendship

Since they connected at a moment when both of them most needed it, their connection is priceless. Their friendship is based on their similarity and autonomy rather than on duty, empathy, or love.
