Question for "The Glass Menagerie" Due November 13 (midnight!)

Scene Two of the play introduces us to the blue roses and the glass menagerie.

Explain your own, personal, response to these two important symbols in a paragraph of about 150 words. Most of your writing should give specific details that give an opinion of, for example, the effect the symbols have on your thinking. There is no need to explain the symbolism in detail.

Please bring your answers to this question and the previous one as well, word processed and double spaced, to class on Wednesday.

Enjoy your long weekend!
