Trifles What is the theme in Trifles by Susan Glaspell? Asked by bookragstutor on 20 Aug 12:21 Last updated by Jill W on 26 May 02:12
One major theme in the play, Trifles, is that of isolation. Over the course of the play, we come to understand Minnie Foster without ever having met her. We empathize with her isolation, we can picture her sense of imprisonment.
