Who drove Blanche crazy?

The story takes place in the old southern American city of New Orleans (not chicken wings), where blanche, a well-born 16-year-old girl, marries her beloved handsome poet Alan.

Alan is gay, and after Blanche discovers the secret, he is publicly humiliated at a dance party, and finally Alan chooses to commit suicide to end his life.

Blanche, on the other hand, began her own absurd and lascivious life, and after seducing a 17-year-old student, she was expelled from school and turned to her sister Stella.

Stella's husband, Stanley, is a vulgar man who rules his wife with sexual desire in the house, like the king of the house. So when Blanche shows up and tries to save Stella, the man acts intolerable.

He repeatedly uncovered Blanche's unbearable past, and at the end, smashed the last sanity of this pathetic woman with rape.

Blanche went crazy, she was sent to a madhouse...

Who drove you crazy? Blanche.

Blanche's whole life has been torn apart by two extremes repeatedly.

On one side is her good origins, her pride in her self-esteem, the freedom she pursues, the love and desire she never wants to give up.

On the other side, the various definitions of reality bring her shackles and destruction

The world defines the union of men and women, so the gay Allen can only choose to cut himself off;

The world defines a woman's womb and yindao as being subordinate to only one man, so Blanche's debauchery becomes a sin of disdain;

The world defines that when you fall in the middle of the road, you must accept the arrangement of fate, take off your chinese clothes, and put down your body;

Because of the world's definition of Blanche, Blanche cannot pass !!!!

That's why Stanley had so many sharp weapons that hurt this fragile woman.

And the most frightening thing is that it is precisely because of this secular definition that the Stanleys are given cruel weapons.

Covering the last page of the book, I couldn't help but think: If we are Blanche, then who defines us?

Not marrying is an older leftover woman;

Liking the same sex is a demon;

If the income is not high, it is not possible to live exquisitely;

There is no divorce if you have children;

So...... Who drove Blanche crazy?

And who defines us?

Maybe we ourselves are original sinners.
