In Susan Glaspell’s play, “Trifles,” she sets the plot around a murder mystery that she covered as a journalist in Iowa in which a wife killed her husband. In her dramatic version, several members of the community (including the sheriff) enter Minnie’s house to investigate her husband’s death. The men question Minnie, but the women realize that Minnie killed her husband—and they conceal the evidence. In your essay, take the focus of a male and female character in relation to Minnie. How does their approach to knowing the “truth” differs depending on their gender? Is their reaction to the husband’s possible abuse also defined by their gender? What is the ultimate message about small-town American lives? Do men and women inhabit separate worlds? video of the reading https://youtu.be/f1LGwPFeSz8 also for the MLA citations use the book Title: The Norton Introduction to Literature Author: Kelly Mays Edition: 12th Edition
