9.2: Trifles: The Rise of Modern Feminism on the Stage, Part 2

Question 5 • (OC27) ENG 4-1001400-S2-VRobinson-VOL7006P

In part two of Trifles, which of the following images most reinforces the theme of loneliness that exists throughout the play?

Answer
A
the hollow in which the Wright home sat
B
the box in which the dead bird was found
C
the partially messy table in the kitchen
D
the broken hinge on the door of the birdcage

Explanation

The Wright home sits in a hollow, isolated from its neighbors and the surrounding community. That image reinforces the play’s theme of loneliness by suggesting how cut off Minnie Wright was from other people. The box and broken birdcage connect more directly to the bird and its death, while the messy table suggests domestic disorder.
