0Julie Carvalho Professor Harrigan Theater and Social Justice 9/22/14 How I learned to thank my abuser? How I Learned To Drive by Paula Vogel is a story told in reverse, of a girl who was molested at a young age by her uncle, and how overtime her understanding of her own situation changed. By the end of the story Lil Bit, the narrator, is almost at the point of pitying her uncle, whereas most people would probably despise him. There are obvious connections, such as how both Doubt and How I Learned To Drive both focus on child molestation, and how they both contain a mother who doesn’t act to protect her child, but I feel the strongest connection is actually between this play and Sonny’s Blues. The sense of freedom that music gave to Sonny and how it gave him a sort of power over his drug addiction reminded me of the sense of freedom and control that Lil Bit felt while driving.
