Based on a few critics’ arguments, this paper suggests how the issues of trauma are resolved by the characters’ life pattern that is anchored at leaving and coming home. In doing so, it reveals that the such traumatic experience of leaving and coming home bear witness to American social historical event including racial segregation, post slavery, Korean War, medical care system and economic depression.
