Paper Summary:
The paper explains how the communities presented in Anne Tyler's "Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant" and Nino Ricci's "Lives of the Saints" differ dramatically, not only in terms of their roles in the lives of their novels' primary female characters, Pearl and Cristina respectively, but also in terms of culture and impact upon the characters. As this essay argues, while sexist community values impact the lives and fates of both women, it is clear that the Italian village of Ricci's novel is both better defined and influential in its characters' lives than is the American community of Tyler's novel.More papers on The Role of Community:
