Working Thesis

I'm doing my close reading paper on Bluest Eye. I noticed the way Toni Morrison uses color to describe the way people talk. I'm not sure of the passages in the book, but I specifically remember her saying someone talked in green. So my working thesis is:
Toni Morrison's Bluest Eye uses color to convey more meaning out of a character's message.
Does that make sense?

Hey Emily!
To answer your question your thesis does make sense! Do you have lots of examples from the book for it? I think you'll do a good job with your thesis!

Fascinating focus Emily. I'm also curious how much support you might have for this argument, but intrigued just the same. Good luck as you progress with this paper.
