Answer 1

Answer:

Miss Cornelia Scott is a wealthy Southern spinster in her 60s. She dresses elaborately, and owns pompous paraphernalia. She is a member of the Confederate Daughters club. Miss Grace Lancaster is her secretary, in her 40s, who has been living in the house for 15 years. There is a complex tension in their relationship. As the title signifies there is ' something unspoken ' between the two.

Miss Cornelia is waiting to hear about the elections at the Confederate of Daughters. She has been a member for years. She wants to be Regent. Her fear of rejection is so much that she cannot submit to the indignities of campaigning-unless everyone says - "We must have Cornelia Scott as our leader." Then she feels she must resign from the organization. Tennessee Williams shows us how she yearns for love and recognition.

She gifts a bouquet of 15 roses as a gift for her secretary. One rose for every year of their togetherness. Cornelia asks if there is anything unspoken between them. Grace says a long silence between two individuals for 15 years creates a wall them and it is impenetrable. She says she is not rich or imperial or bold like Cornelia. She herself can’t even attempt to break that wall of silence and heavy air between the two. In her monologue she says Cornelia is the strong one of the two. Cornelia patiently listens to Grace. They both want love and companionship but something between them stop them from completely being true friends. When the phone rings Cornelia is shocked to hear that she is not elected as the Regent. She is getting to ready to resign from the confederation. Grace is happy to receive the bouquet

Tennessee Williams as in his major plays like The Glass Menagerie and A Streetcar Named Desire has incorporated themes like haunting loneliness and the isolated woman's plight into his one act play- 'Something Unspoken'. He is widely considered the greatest Southern playwright and one of the greatest playwrights in the history of American drama.
