11. Why do think Twyla asks Roberta, “How is your mother?” What is she trying to accomplish by asking her this question? Does she succeed? Why?

12. What is a “Recitatif”? What words does it remind you of and how are these words related to the story?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:9 answer:Twyla realizes that she's the only one leading their conversation and after embarrasing herself by not knowing who Jimi Hendrix was she could sense that the conversation was over (since the other party had no interest whatsoever in keeping it going) therefore she decides to ask one final question involving their families in order to walk away from the conversation and the characters themselves.

12 answer:”ecitatif" is the French form of the word recitative, which is a type of musical dialogue used during the narrative parts in an opera. The title is significant to the story because Twyla Benson shares each of her encounters with Roberta Fisk Norton as an operatic act.”The term "recitatif" also once included the now-obsolete meaning, "the tone or rhythm peculiar to any language."
