This study is to discuss Morrison’s counter-writing of the 1950s American society in view of the critical perspectives of racist practices in Home. In Home, Morrison debunks American regard for the 1950s as a period of peace and prosperity. In the novel, Frank Money is a “racial outcast” of the 1950s American society. He is suffering from the war trauma because he watched his two best friends dying cruelly in front of him, and was responsible for killing numerous people, including a young Korean girl. However, roaming the streets as a drunkard and derelict, he is locked in the veteran’s mental hospital. In the social negligence and oppression, Frank plays a role as a Morrison critic of 1950s American society. After escaping from a psychiatric ward, he travels to Atlanta where his sister waits for his help to escape from the clutches of a white racist doctor. In this process, he explores racial violence which Morrison captures with travelling imagery. Finally, he, with his sister, makes his way back to his hometown. Although reflecting the social isolation and economic poverty of the 1950s African American community. his hometown leads him to relief from traumatic pain and to resurrection of family bonds.
