Morrison's Sexual Depictions Toni Morrison incorporated vulgar sexual depictions into her novel with distinct literary intentions. Although many challengers of the novel contest that these scenes contain no value, Morrison composed these depictions with specific intent and purpose.

Through most of the novel, writer Dan Brown methodically tricks readers into believing the wrong things until the tense climax and the sudden realization of wrong hypotheses.

idealized and perfected. These shepherd girls are beautiful, clean-footed, dressed in unfashionable but intact, clean clothes, and sport noble, solemn expressions.” (“Bouguereau and the Italian Peasant”, 2014).
