The Glass Menagerie : Representing Dreams and Realities.
This essay analyses the dream imagery in the play by Tennessee Williams, The Glass Menagerie. Laura's illusions exist in her glass figurines, a symbol for her desire to be reflected in some way other than how she is. Her mother, Amanda, chooses to live in a past dream world where she was someone other than who she is now. By choosing their different illusions, the mother and daughter are vulnerable to the world they avoid. This essay considers how the illusions work in the conflicts of the play. 3 pgs.
