Professor Anel I. Flores
English 1301January 30,2007
In almost all the chapter three, Ana Castillo wrote about cures, witchcraft, and “limpias.” She explain about of certain herbs, teas and different processes “to get well” thru this superstitions and rituals. I was not surprised of that because “Dona Felicia” lived in Veracruz Mexico, in certain town named Catemaco which is famous for people practicing witchcraft.
The writer still added drama to her novel to keep attention of her audience (readers), and Caridad, the lady who was wildly attacked and in process of recuperation, disappear. No body knows about her. A year after her vanish, a couple of men found her in a wild status; like an animal. Not enough with all this tragedy, the people started naming her “la santita” without motive to do it.
