Trifles and A Jury of Her Peers

The two stories were very similar in plot and had a lot in common. The short story was easier to read and flowed better, but short staries are supposed to be that way. I liked the play better because of the dialogue. It seemed more real and appealing. I thought that the title for the play was interesting also. Trfles was mentioned in the play by Mr. Hale. He states that "women are used to worrying ver trifles." It is ironic to say she worried about trifles when she had just committed murder. It is also ironic because if the men had bother to look at the little things they might have solved the case also.

I like how you talked about the connection between the title of the poem and the actual plot, and how they relate. It is actually because of the men overlooking these "trifles" that the women actually acknowledge, that determines the ending of the writing. Because the women paid attention to these "trifles" they held the pieces necessary to solve the murder.
