What is the significance of denver's retreating so often to the secret field behind the house?

History

6 0

The significance of retreating so often to the secret field behind the house is that Denver feels that Beloved’s interested gaze sends her to a place “beyond appetite” and that looking at Beloved is “food enough.” Beloved provides emotional sustenance for Denver in a way that Sethe never could, because Denver is simultaneously responsible for and dependent upon Beloved. Beloved’s constant neediness is most like an infant’s desire for its mother; when Sethe is not there for Beloved, Denver becomes a sort of surrogate mother figure. She is forced out of her role as a daughter and into a more adult role that involves working in the interest of another’s welfare.The language used to describe Denver’s relationship with Beloved is loaded with the vocabulary of need and desire.
