This paper details my perception of the short story, "Say Yes." Love knows no color, but love isn't always easy. Both these points are illustrated in Tobias Wolff's "Say Yes." He displays the frustration of interracial marriages in the exchange between a husband and wife. This paper attempts the answer to the question, can we really "know" one another if our skin isn't the same color. "Say Yes" is an emotional story of love and its pitfalls. In this provocative story, the husband loves his wife dearly but fails to really know that all she wants to hear is affirmation of her proposal of love despite the racial undertone involve. The husband does not come to the realization of this concept until the end of the story when he accepts the proposal and puts forth the effort to "make it up" to his wife, Ann.
