The Glass Menagerie/ Allusion

"Animals have sections in their stomachs which enable them to digest food without mastication, but human beings are supposed to chew their food before they swallow it down."  This is an example of an allusion.  Amanda is referring to animals in order to explain her point even more.  "The Glass Menagerie" is actually a very interesting play!  I really enjoy it much more than the Shakespeare plays.  First off, this play is much more easier diction, unlike Shakespeare.  Shakespeare was in a type of diction where most people did not understand.  If you tried to comprehend his plays, it took much focus.  "The Glass Menagerie" is very more modern, and I am very interested in what is going to happen!
