Question

Does this answer make sense @dako87

Answer 1

What do we know about Esperanza from her reaction to the story about her great-grandmother?

Esperanza is named after her great-grandmother, and both she and her great-grandmother were born in the Chinese year of the horse. The horse is an animal that represents strength, and being born under this sign is supposed to be bad luck for women. Esperanza rejects this superstition, explaining that she believes both the Chinese and the Mexicans discourage women from being strong. Esperanza never met her great-grandmother, but she compares her to a “wild horse” (11). She did not want to get married but was forced into marriage and never forgave her husband. She spent her life gazing sadly out the window. Esperanza says that while she has inherited her great-grandmother’s name, she does not want to “inherit her place by the window” (11). This gives Esperanza and air of being different and how she wants to be strong compared to her grandmother and the superstitions.
