"Trifles" by Glaspel. I did not enjoy reading it, I read it so long ago I dodnt remember the details, all I know is that it represents the perfect murder, where you kill and no one finds out.
The perfect murder for me is not this one though. The perfect murder for me is the one in "The lamb's leg". Where this married couple has a quarrel and the wife takes out a frozen lamb's leg and bumps her husband's head and ends up killing him. To cover herself she cooks the leg and calls the police, While they investigate amd fimd a piece of ice on the victim's head, they sit down to eat the leg. BAM! Perfect murder! You see, I prefer this one because it's very unusual and you will rarely know that it has happened.....unlike in Trifles. In "Trifles" the murder can be either a suicide or a homocide dressed as a suicide, since its a rope hang. Up to this day you can find that very common. YOU READING THIS, SUICIDAL PEOPLE!? IF YOU'RE GONNA DO IT, MAKE IT INTERESTING!
Also, that the wife said that she was sleeping while someone hung her husband, that's either bad plagiarism or just horrible cliches. My point is, that the perfect murder should be very creative. Thank you.

Due to technical problems, I couldn't respond to you guys. I will do it here.
I am gonna be myself and be stubborn about it. I won't change or add any more in this post because all the other details bored me. I am sorry. Thank you
Hello, I was very interested in the way you described "The lamb's leg" perfect murder, but I would have liked to read a little more about your impression of "Trifles", since I believe it has some good points to be discussed in a post.

ResponderEliminarFrom what you remember, what do you believe was the main point, other than the talk about the killing, in the drama "Trifles"? I believe that Glaspel wanted to point out how tradition was affecting the family life; the husband and wife life inside a house, in the time period of the 1900's. Care to comment on this? I find it interesting, and in a way, I hope she did get recognition, or that the message got through to some people, for humanities sake.
ResponderEliminarI'm a suicidal person, and I don't believe I should make my suicide interesting or worth a read, since it's personal and you may not know what the person is doing, thinking or the reason it happened. Either way, why would the wife cover a suicide as a homicide? Doesn't make that much sense to me. And I don't think this story was about describing a perfect murder, either. Anyway, you have a creative mind and you deserve credit for that.
ResponderEliminarI feel that you totally lost the point of what was being discussed in this post. Also, your call to suicidal people to "make it interesting" was way of the line, really morbid and inconsiderate.
ResponderEliminarHello Angel. First and foremost, as someone that has many people that she loves that suffer with depression and suicidal tendencies I find your comment quite deplorable. I would hate to read about a loved ones suicide and feel like they felt the need to make it interesting just to give a kick to someone that might read about it. Egging someone on is frankly in my eyes quite ignorant in a way. Moving on, much like Nicolas comment I feel like you missed a big point of the story as it wasn't such as 'the perfect murder' but why the murder was committed.
