Dany's OP Topic
I choose to discuss the power struggles in the book, such as the rise of socialism in the politics of Chile and also at Tres Marias. I plan to examine how the residents of Tres Marias escape Esteban Trueba's 'monarchy', and also how a 'socialism' (Estaban not having power) emerges even at the House on the Corner. I then plan to explain how the transitions in Tres Marias and the House on the Corner are inevitable due to the actions of certain characters in the book, most obviously Esteban Trueba.

You post comments on everyone else's and they can't return the favor? Unfortunate state of affairs.
ReplyDeleteThe house on the corner is a careful microcosm of the politics outside it; there are tons of clues to this if you look closely.
