Q

Florens “i dream a dream that dreams back at me”

Twin-imaginary friend “I am always with you.”-Twin to Sorrow

Twin serves as an imaginary companion to Sorrow. Morrison allows each of his characters to depend on their thoughts and dreams for comfort and understanding due to their lack of companionship and love from relationships with those who have abandoned them. Through the transitions of the characters, Morrison allows the reader to see how they become trapped in their thoughts and dreams instead of facing reality.
