Trifles

I love reading about plays because I try to vision each scene in my head. That's the only way I'll enjoy the play.  Trifles didn't quite have my interest. It may have been the diction used for the play. Without the stage directions I would've been quite confused, if not following along with the stage directions. I didn't really feel the melody of the play until I read the essay. The essay helped out in a lot of ways. I like how Ms. Johnson brought up the questions that readers may have about the overall play, which are, issues about laws, morals, and human relationships.

The True Story

The true story tells a story about a lifetime in the past the writer doesn't want to go back to. In the first two stanzas, Atwood gives away for the true story. " Don't ask for the true story; why do you need it? its not what I set out with or what I carry (1-4). She no longer lives in that lifetime nor carry the vibe around with her. The true story reminds me of not judging a book by its cover but more so of if I tell you my true story will you look at me the same way.
