How would you characterize the different dreams represented by the various members of the Younger family, especially Lena and Big Walter, Walter, Ruth, and Beneatha? What, for example, do Lena’s remarks about how she and her husband “was going to set away, little by little,” “buy a little place out in Morgan Park” (p. 1519), and create a garden suggest about the nature of the dreams she and her husband shared? What does the exchange between Lena and her son about money being “life” and Walter’s references to “gambling” suggest about the differences between her dream and her son’s? What do Beneatha’s remarks about her brother, particu­larly in the final scene, and her interactions with George Murchison and Joseph Asagai suggest about her dreams and the way they differ from Walter’s? How might you account for the differences among the characters’ dreams?
