Adrianna Gabriella j: What does an eye motif signify in literature?
And can someone please note its appearance in a couple of different works?
I know The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison is one for sure.
And can this motif signify different things? Like the bluest eye is innocence, but could the eye signify something else too? Depending on the literature?

I dunno, but https://www.sparknotes.com/lit/bluesteye/themes.html might help. Good luck!
Edit:
Eye: window to the soul, identity (everyone’s retina is different), wisdom/insight, race (eye colour) (The Blue Bouquet is a short story regarding this.), personality
Personalities: soft, kind eyes; harsh, accusing eyes, bitter eyes
