A Streetcar Named Desire (1)

Tonight I started reading a streetcar named desire. It starts out in New Orleans, and I instantly new how it looked like just from the description and from my seeing pictures. So far I know about Stella living here with her husband Stanley and another lady Eunice. Everyone seems real friendly with each other. Except for Eunice and the colored woman. I was kind of confused because I wasn't sure if the colored woman is the negro woman or not, or if they are two separate people. Well, apparently, Stella's sister shows up, Blanche, from Mississippi and she just seems in shock that her own sister would actually live in a place like this. Right now, Stella is out at the bowling alley, so Eunice shows her in and Stella is kind of rude and tells her she wants to be left alone. So she looks around, finds whiskey, drinks some, and puts it back. Then Stella shows up and is pretty much right off the bat trying to convince Blanche that this place is not as bad as it seems. So I'll continue reading.
