The book's controversial topics of racism, incest, and child molestation have led to numerous attempts to ban the novel from schools and libraries in the United States.
In addition, there is an omniscient third-person narrative that includes inset narratives in the first person. She is the daughter of Pecola's foster parents. The novel is told from Claudia MacTeer's point of view. As a result, she develops an inferiority complex, which fuels her desire for the blue eyes she equates with "whiteness". Set in 1941, the story is about how she is consistently regarded as "ugly" due to her mannerisms and dark skin. The novel takes place in Lorain, Ohio (Morrison's hometown), and tells the story of a young African-American girl named Pecola who grew up following the Great Depression. The Bluest Eye, published in 1970, is the first novel written by Toni Morrison.
