		Instead, Sula is developmentally complete by the middle of the novel; she does not question herself and she has no revelations or regrets, yet she manages to propel the story forward by the sheer unpredictability of her actions.
		Sula is aware of the impact that she has on the Bottom, and nowhere is this knowledge more pointed-or poignant-than in her deathbed rave to Nel, which assumes the form of a half- humorous, half-haunting incantation.
		Sula lives according to her own design and, for that independence, dies early and alone on the second floor of an empty, run-down house-but as she says, "my lonely is mine" (143).

		Sula leaves the Bottom to conquer the unknown cities of America, while Nel becomes a homebody, settling down as a wife and mother.
		On the page, Sula is one of her more clearly defined novels?the friendship and later hatred that envelopes the lives of two fl women from "the bottom"?but the imagistic nature of the writing means listeners may have to replay passages if they want to follow the action.
		Sula is not meant to be a sympathetic character.In this respect she is similar to the main female character in As I Lay Dying, by Faulkner, a writer who also populates his novels with less than savory figures.

	An Essay on Toni Morrison's Novel Sula: A Sacrificial Scapegoat: - Associated Content
		Although the community labels Sula as evil, thinking that they would be better off without her, in all reality, having Sula as a single focus for their misfortunes leads to them living happier, healthier lives.
		Their reasons for deciding that Sula is evil are absurd, showing that their labeling of Sula as such has more to do with their need for someone to blame than it does with Sula herself.
		Although it may be true that Sula, having lived the city life for the past ten years, has not aged as roughly as the rural women of Bottom, it is hardly proof that she is evil.

	Literary Encyclopedia: Sula (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		If Morrison’s Sula was not directly influenced by the environment of war and political resistance of the 1960s and 70s, the novel was certainly informed by the social energies generated during this embattled era.
		Morrison’s story of the friendship between Nel and Sula and their lives in the Bottom is told in two parts, beginning with an untitled prologue graphically depicting wartime events in France experienced by a shell-shocked veteran named Shadrack who returns to the Bottom and establishes National Suicide Day in 1919.
		As with her first novel and her subsequent novels to date, Toni Morrison, similarly to her predecessor Ann Petry, constructs locations in her fiction that have become as important to her writing and as distinctive in her oeuvre as the characters that inhabit her narratives.
