Blood Wedding Journal #1 Symbols (2)

1. Knife:
The knife represents the bride. It is a symbol for the bride because the bride has a double personality. She seems like a nice, sweet, hard working girl. However, she truly is mean, evil, and cheating. This is like a knife because there are two sides to the blade just like there are two sides to the bride's personality. The knife could also connect to the title "Blood Wedding" because knives spill blood.

2. Olive Groves/Vineyards: The mother talks about having gone out to the vineyards with father, but that was where father died, so she doesn't want to go with her son. I think that the vineyards or olive groves could be a symbol for the intertwinement of the two families in death because vines intertwine.
