In Susan Glaspell’s play “Trifles,” Mrs. Wright once loved singing and was remembered as a cheerful young woman. After marrying Mr. Wright, she became isolated and unhappy; he killed the canary that had brought music and life into her home. The dead bird symbolizes the joyful spirit Mr. Wright crushed, so the best answer is “The bird represents Mrs. Wright when she was young and happy; Mr. Wright destroyed his wife’s joyful spirit.”
