Chapter 11 Summary
Paul D feels like Beloved is moving him around the house. First, he begins sleeping on a chair every night instead of with Sethe. Then he starts sleeping in Baby Suggs' old room. He thinks it is general restlessness at first, but that does not seem right to him either. Next, Paul D sleeps in the storehouse in the back of 124.
