never actually gets over her mother’s abandonment and it shows throughout the story. Much like Marie’s children in “Puppy”, Roberta and Twyla hardly receive punishment for their actions. In both stories, some characters strive for one thing: money. Just as Roberta and Twyla come from St. Bonny’s, Callie is of lower class, even her dog being referred to as “white trash” at one point. It is made subtly clear that the girls in “Recitatif” strive for success through money, while Callie wants…

Some comparisons are clearer than others, but the ones that stand out…
