This study discusses the journey in Toni Morrison’s Home from the perspective of a variation of the journey in Song of Solomon in terms of the motive, the process, and the ending. In the novels, Morrison weaves protagonists’ travels into the plots. Her protagonists Milkman Dead and Frank Money travel from Northern cities to Southern cities in the United States. Their travels reflect their disappointments with their houses. However, while Milkman not only undergoes psychological and physical maturation, but also discovers African Americans’ spiritual presence, Frank witnesses racial violence through his realistic perspectives, such as a racist attack against a black couple and a victim of a police shooting. He also brings to mind childhood memories of endless toil in the fields, dislocation, broken family bonds, lynching, and war trauma. His ambivalent travel ends with returning to his hometown, a place leading him to not only relieve himself of the burden of a traumatized past but also resurrect ideas ofhome and family bonds.
