Blood Wedding Journal #3

"Which characters appear to be miserable in the play and why? When and how do the characters express their misery? What do the characters desire and what stops them from going after what each desires?"
The bride appears to be miserable in the play because of how she acts. Some of the things she does to express her misery are to throw her flowers on the ground, yell at the maid, and be very solemn around everyone. The bride desires, trully, to be with Leonardo, not the bridegroom. She is stopped from going after what she wants by the fact that she is to marry the bridegroom and that Leonardo is already married.
The wife also appears to be miserable in the play because of how she acts. She gets very angry at her husband, Leonardo, for not riding in the carraige with them. She also cries when she is singing the lullaby about the horse to her child. She desires Leonardo to love her. She is stopped from this by the bride because that is whom Leonardo loves.
