homework due Dec.4
It is obviously acknowledged that Tom wants to escape from the house. He is drinking and smoking which is observed from his pocket and his hand, but the reason why he still stays in the house and supports them is Laura. Since he loves Laura as his sister. Laura seems like to stay in her own world. The glass menagerie represents her whole life. She would like to stay alone and play with her glass. In the middle of Tom and Amanda, It seems like she could do nothing. Amanda as a kind of annoying role is keeping talking with Laura about her marriage. She thinks Laura is the only hope for her. The only way to stop the situation is Laura's marriage. She gots hopeless for herself due to the age, but she still wears the best clothes she has to communicate with people. She is thinking about her past, her "perfect life" before her husband has not gone yet, but her dreaming life is broken due to her husband's life. The comparison is unacceptable to her. So, she continues finding a way to escape from the situation. She argues with Toms with everything. And their biggest fight is when they are talking about the gentleman callers. She said to Tom that he can leave by bringing some gentleman called. When Tom is done this, he quit his job and leave them like his father did.
