Today's society and that of the early 1900s have completely different attitudes and beliefs towards women. This ranges from their roles in society to what they are supposed to do in the home, including the place they occupy among men. In today's society, however, women are allowed to vote, hold well-paying jobs, and even own property! Some men might say that a woman's place is in the kitchen; but on the other hand, a select handful of men and all women will not agree. In “Trifles” by Susan Glaspell, the setting is primarily the main living room, which contains the kitchen and living room. The kitchen is where cooking and cleaning takes place, usually done by a woman, and the living room is where the family gathers and spends time together. In this story, the women stay inside the whole time and the men spend the entire play reliving what happened, in the barn, and trying to find a motive. Men felt like women were too fragile to handle debates and controversies. This is ironic since Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters are left alone in the main living quarters, which is the women's "place", but yet, this is where the ladies and the reader discover the most information about the life of Mrs. Minnie Wright. and slowly begins to solve the mystery. The reader soon discovers how happy and joyful Mrs. Wright was before she got married. She was a charming girl who loved to sing in the church choir, like the canary she acquired and loved, she also wore bright dresses and was absolutely in a good mood. On the contrary, her house is now very dark and gloomy and she is gloomy, lonely and depressed. His house was left messy and without things being put in order, such as unwashed pans, a loaf of bread outside the bread box, a...... middle of paper... ...hat Mr. Wright killed the canary by twisting its neck. He had probably made this cruel man furious with his singing, just like his wife loved to sing before she married him. The person who reads “Bagatelles” must assume several things in this story and form their own opinion. One thing that must be assumed is that Mr. Wright killed the canary and then she twisted his neck the same way he twisted his canary's neck. If the women had revealed that they had come across the canary, it would have provided the men with additional evidence that Mrs. Wright had killed her husband. Without this proof, the men can simply admit that the cat ate him, and not be able to deport or send Mrs. Wright to trial for her husband's murder. They trust what women say about the cat, perhaps catching the canary, because, ultimately, what do women know? ??
