Abstract:The Bluest Eyes is the first novel written by Toni Morrison, who is a world-famous American-African writer and the winner of the Nobel Prize in 1993. Based on the backdrop of the black’s suffer from mental slavery in 1941, The Bluest Eyes tells a story of a black little girl Pecola who suffered abuse and torture. The description of her longing for a pair of blue eyes and craziness after undergoing torments, the novel portrays the living condition of a black community which has internalized white culture values.

This paper aims at analyzing the mental disorder of the black caused by the white culture hegemony in The Bluest Eyes from the perspective of post-colonialism. Pecola’s tragedy symbolizes the tragedy of the whole black community. They gave up their own history and culture. Meanwhile, they denied themselves blindly, trying to erase their black imprints. Therefore, they lost their own subjectivity and became a race of no belonging. This paper points out that only the black retain and stick to their national culture, resisting the internalization of white culture, can they find their real identity and revive the black people.
