The best option for the family would be the dream of Mama, which would be the purchase of a new spacious neat house for the family, with loads of sunlight. Their crippled grimy house is used for entire setting of the play. The mood of the characters and the tensions seems to depend on the lightning conditions in the apartments, which are usually pretty bad, due to the presence of only one window. Therefore, it is remarkable that there aren’t more conflicts in the tiny apparent, when their cramped forced way of living is taking into account.

When he’d visited two weeks before, his high levels of anxiety had blinded him to the rundown surroundings his friend lived in. But on reflection, it seemed out of character. Booker certainly wasn’t a snob, but he was somewhat vain, and his apartment didn’t really fit the image. Except, the more Tom thought about it, it did. The…

Besides protecting me from my birth mother on my fifth birthday, he also protected me from them at other times as well. When I was two years old, my birth father came to the door with his new wife.

would want would be was at church. I believe the major turning point in my life occurred on a lazy summer afternoon when I was around nine years old. I had been sick with a cold that whole week. We had run out of cold medicine, and my mom ran to the store to buy more. She had been gone for just about an hour when a man started knocking on our door.
