Summary:This graduating paper analyzes Pecola Breedlove�s inferiority complex in Toni Morrison�s The Bluest Eye. This research paper discusses the psychological disorder of Pecola because of the humiliations and harshness she receives from people around her. Besides, the misconception of beauty is also becoming the background of her psychological disorder. The research looked into the novel without relating it with the novel�s writer and her environment. To support the paper, library based research is used. The novel itself becomes the main data and references from libraries and internet are the secondary data. The result of the research shows that the internal and external aspects of someone�s life can ruin their life. In the case of Pecola, her environment and her-self becomes the factor of damage for herself. Her family, friends, neighbors and also her misconception of beauty make her insane just because she wants the love from the people around her
