Streetcar Named Desire
In these chapters we find out alot about Blanche. First off, we find out that she walked in on her littler husband in bed with a man. At first she doesn't say anything to her about it, but then one night while they are dancing she tells him how disgusted she is and that she knows about it,and then her husband ran out of the room and shot himself in the head. Also, we find out that Blanche did have something to do with the Flamingo hotel. Lastly we find out that Blanche was never planning on going back to Laurel. She isn't on a leave of absence from the school she is working at, she was actually fired. This isn't the biggest part of the story. She wasn't fired because of how she teaches or a minor act done in the classroom. She was actually fired because she had an inappropriate relationship with her seventeen year old male student. She most likely wouldn't have gotten caught, but then the boys father found out. From then on out there were many meetings, and she fired. There are many truths about Blanche that come out throughout the reading last night. The only surprising one was about her husband killing himself because Blanche found out the truth.
