A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry is about pursuit of Lena Youngers’ dreams. ... She dreams of a house with “three bedrooms…and a yard with a little patch of dirt where [she] could maybe grow a few flowers” would fortify her position as a woman who can stand free in the world. ...
In Anne Cheney’s book Lorraine Hansberry she states that “the Youngers’ dream neither dries up nor explodes” and does not shrivel up “like a raisin in the sun.” Mama’s dreams will allow the family to prosper and will ensure that their happiness will be revived. ... In David Cooper’s critique of Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun he states that “when they begin to put the families and the family’s wishes before their own, they merge their individual dreams with the family’s overarching dream.” Even though Walter loses the portion of the money he was planning on investing in the liquor store the family is still able to move out of the apartment and move to a better place where their dreams have to chance to become reality.
