Breakfast at TIffany's (Oct. 2)
This may be a stretch, but when I tried to think of a story just like "Wife of Bath" I couldn't help but think of the character Holly from "Breakfast at Tiffany's." Holly, just like the wife, is outspoken and bold, unlike most women of their times. They both have fancy clothing and flaunt this lifestyle. The two women have not had the best track record for relationships, as the Wife of Bath has been married several times and her husbands have all died...Holly has made it clear she wants money. Both women being independent, they both actually hold a level of intelligence in that they can talk about what they mean and what they want. The two women certainly like to chat. These women draw the reader/viewer to want to like them very much so and for these reasons the two pieces of literature resemble another.
