In the story ¨Miss Adele Amidst the Corsets¨, Miss Adele, forty-six years old, liked to wear corset to look pretty on stage. She with her lived years describes the city very well. When she went in search of a new corset, she had to face racism and homophobia. She also had to endure sarcastic comments from owners and other buyers at the Clinton Corset Emporium, including from a talk radio show. Miss Adele always remembered the shame to which she was subjected by her family in the "God Forgotten State of Florida". Her family was very intolerant. She at the end of the story runs away from the store only taking the things that belonged to her.
Loretta Young is a beautiful actress in the twenties-fifties who was raped by Clark Glade. She kept her son a secret since her son was out of marriage. Miss Adele refers to Mss. Alexander as Mss. Young since she was also beautiful, and she was always happy about her life. Miss Adele give her an award for being a good wife. For me it seems illogical her awarding since sometimes not everything is good in a marriage. In some cases, despite marital problems, one has to act as if nothing happened. Despite the fact that sometimes Miss Adele had her strong temperaments. She focused on that we always have to be true to ourselves.
