Three Lives

Three Ordinary Lives, Three Extraordinary Pieces of Writing

“You look ridiculous if you dance / You look ridiculous if you don't dance / So you might as well / dance.” - Gertrude Stein, Three Lives

In Three Lives, Gertrude Stein tells the story of three common American women. The first one is Anna Federner, a German immigrant with green parrot that colors her apparently dull serving life. Melanctha, a black woman searching for a meaning in her mixed life, is the protagonist of the second part of the book while Lena, a passive and misunderstood of German descent, is the unsung hero of the third part.
