The Mother Showman Analysis

722 Words3 Pages
This creative piece is a response to the Venus’ ability to manipulate her oppressors in order to get what she wants in the novel The Venus by Suzan Lori-Parks. For this response I used text from scenes 30, 22 , 20I, and 9. I used scence 30 because this scene shows how the Venus uses seduction and her body to get what she wants from The Brother. She is in a room alone with him and he is displaying interest in her and is trying to pursue her because they have a history. The Venus uses these feelings that he has for her to get a dress because that is what she wants. Scene 22 is used for the second diary entry. I decided to use this scene because Venus is able to manipulate The Mother Showman by exploiting her motherly quality to get what she wanted.
