2nd paper proposal

For the second post I have decided to write about Morrison's Love. I want to concentrate on how knowning things about the characters that the other characters do not know changes a readers viewpoint of specific characters. Like Junior, Heed knows nothing about her past just feels that she is the right person for the job. In the end it turns out Heed and Junior are a lot alike. While the reader knows this through most of the book the characters do not know this.
In 'real' life I think this is common to people are drawn to each other and often have no idea why until much later on. I just finished Everyone Worth Knowing by lauren Weisberger (author of The Devil Wears Prada) and while i will happily admit the book was one I just choose to take a break from books with that took a lot out of me as a reader, the main character's love interest she first notices because she feels they have something in common. Come to find out they grew up in the same small New York town and graduated high school together, their pasts were very simular.

I'm a little unclear on what your thesis will be for this paper. (You talked about several interesting things, but I'm not sure which you intend to be your focus.)Could you state it for me in one or two sentences?
