Why does Gretel hate her father brother and the lawyer

Their exploitative ways

Explanation:

In the short story, Gretel, the author Garrison Keillor tells a story of a female named Gretel who is a writer. Gretel believes that her father who is always drinking is exploiting both she and her step-mother and so hates him for it.

She hates her brother too as he is working to ensure that he gets the lion's share of profits from the sale of her book whilst only giving her a small portion.

She also hates the lawyer because he put a spell on her that made her sign a contract that would give away the lion's share of the profits.
