This is a quick summary and analysis of The Chrysanthemums by John Steinbeck. This channel discusses and reviews books, novels, and short stories through drawing...poorly. Facebook Page - / 1148331925195691 This is a story about a woman named Elisa who lives on a farm with her husband. Her husband has just sold cattle to some businessmen and he wants to take her out to celebrate after he delivers the cattle. Elisa tends a small garden near the house and grows amazing chrysanthemums. She claims to have a planter's hand, a feel for when flowers need to be trimmed and budded. A traveler drives up the road and identifies himself as a repairman of sorts. He can sharpen knives and fix dented pots. He asks Elisa if she needs anything to be fixed, but she says no. He talks about his travels and lifestyle, which Elisa secretly wishes she had. He then sees that she has a garden and asks about it. Elisa gets excited that the man is interested in her flowers and explains that she has a planter's hand. She gives him some of her chrysanthemum sprouts to grow. Eventually the man leaves and her husband returns. She gets dressed up and the husband notices how pretty she looks. She takes offense, claiming that she has always been strong. As they head down the road, she sees the chrysanthemum sprouts that she had given to the traveler on the side of the road. Then she cries. Gender roles are an important issue in this story. The initial description of Elisa is of a woman covered by the farming clothes of a man. Her overalls and hat are men's clothing, which de-feminizes her as a woman, hiding the features that make her a woman. At the same time, she is not quite a man either, as she can only look on as her husband makes the cattle sale with the other businessmen. The traveler is also an interesting character. He is given no name. All we know is that he travels by wagon from Seattle to San Diego and fixes things along the way. He gave Elisa the attention that she so craved. However, seeing that he just threw away the chrysanthemum sprouts on the side of the road, it shows how phony his intentions were. In fact, his profession, as a fixer and sharpener of tools, is reflective of his character. The tools that he sharpens will eventually all become dull again, as will the fixed pots getting more dents as time passes. And it seems that for a moment he helped to fix whatever was missing in Elisa's life, but like his sharpening and fixing of appliances, those fixes were only temporary or fake.
