It represents Past Present and Future generations. And if they have coins etched into their shells it is supposed to help you pass down your wealth to future generations.<BR/><BR/>How cool is that?Annie-go-lightlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13447830201531930756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32061865.post-1154951054744374972006-08-07T04:44:00.000-07:002006-08-07T04:44:00.000-07:00Thank you honey!

Hmmmm ... all I can remember is that scene where Beloved and Denver see turtles mating and Beloved reacts to it and then later mimics how the turtles mated when she has sex with Paul D. But I can see where turtles would fit in with some of the themes of the book - endurance, stregnth, longevity. Hmmm ... seems to me also when I was doing that research on turtles something about when turtles are stacked on each other it represents family in some Asian cultures. Maybe I will try and look it up later and see if there is something I am forgetting?Annie-go-lightlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13447830201531930756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32061865.post-1154932512904340522006-08-06T23:35:00.000-07:002006-08-06T23:35:00.000-07:00I love your writing....I get lost in the stream-of...I love your writing....I get lost in the stream-of-consciousness of it...always have...<BR/><BR/>Hey--I remember in the Toni Morrison's Beloved, there was some symbolism involving turtles.
