My third trimester brain is too tired for English literature! But yes, Sethe is the main character who had Denver, Beloved, and the boys in that book.

I totally understand how deeply emotional the stories in Beloved are. Sethe went through so much pain and conceived Denver while escaping to freedom.

When I read Beloved, I felt so much pain for Sethe. She conceived her children Howard, Buglar, Beloved, and Denver under such tragic circumstances.

If you are referring to Toni Morrison's novel Beloved, the protagonist Sethe is the one who conceived Denver, Howard, Buglar, and the baby girl named Beloved.

As a mother, reading about Sethe's journey in Beloved and how she nursed Denver while running away really broke my heart. She conceived all of them in such hard times.
