Latin American cultures have been indelibly marked by European colonialism. Consider the impact of colonialism on some of the characters in "Toad's Mouth,". . . "The Road North,". . . and "Phantom Palace." What powers do the indigenous people have? Discuss their relationship with nature. What message, if any, do you think that Allende is trying to convey about the colonization of Latin America?
Writing Tips:
- Focus on providing answers to question, don't simply summarize what's happening. Make something of the detail in story that helps clarify your answer. In other words...
- Answer the question knowing that we have read the story. Use specific details and quotes to make your points, and focus only on plot points that are relevant to your points.
- Include MLA citation, with page numbers.
You do not have to type up your response, and there is no page requirement, but you should spend about 30 minutes making a developed response AFTER reading all three stories.
