Résumé
In her poignant novella "White Bread, " Zona Gale explores the complex dynamics of small-town life in early 20th-century America. Through her masterful use of naturalistic dialogue and vivid characterization, Gale delves into themes of socio-economic disparity, gender roles, and the quest for personal identity.
