Week 1 Prompt & Story Selection Log

Once you have decided on an approved prompt and approved text(s), respond to the questions below.  Please be mindful of the word count and double-space all of your responses. You are to meet the minimum word requirement without going over the maximum number of words requested.

1. What is your chosen prompt for the literary analysis assignment?

I have chosen to write about prompt 1. The story Piropo by Leticia Del Toro”. They say change in your life happens quickly, and maybe it’s true because my life with Vicente and Joaquin changed in just day”.

2. What text will you write about? (Full story title & Author name) How does the text connect with the prompt?

I will write about the story of a writer Leticia Del Toro “piropo” who is living in El Cerrito. The narrator by the name Carolina is having the problem of taking care of her brothers, her father, her kid, herself and even her husband alone without the help from her husband. Now the narrator decided to present herself just like the way men do in search for up keep. She decided to disguise her sex and went to the world of manual labor. These characters become restless because they are in search for something to do so that she can be able to put food on the table. The narrator is seen complaining and even almost giving up but again she still believes there is hope. The narrator contends with the father of her boy before they navigate to another world of well-meaning she could not even predict. (Cardenas, 2011).

3. Read the story thoroughly and answer the following. Be sure to review key terms like character, setting, and conflict before you answer:

a. Who is/are the main character(s) in this story?

The main character in the story is the narrator by the name Carolina who decided to assert herself into the man’s world of manual labor. She is faced with the burden of taking care of big men and even her husband included and their home seems to have no jobs. That is why they decide to travel in search of a job.

b. What is the setting of this story?

The setting of this story is in Santa Fe Street because the writer is saying if I can quote, “we were driving to a house on Santa Fe Street, of off Marin Avenue” and the narrator had described very well how the place looked like, (Cardenas, 2011).

4. What is the main conflict in the story? (Write 100-150 words describing this conflict)

The main conflict in the story is about the fact the narrator sees she is burdened with duties of taking care of herself, the brothers, her father, her kid, and now the grown man her husband. These issues of taking care of her husband seem to amuse her since she could not even get the help from Joaquin her husband, (Smith, 2017). It seems to find a job in Mexico where the writer is based was seen to be a problem and even making her almost losing the urge of fighting a battle which I can describe as poverty. Without the help from her husband, the fight seems not to come to an end, is what the narrator is focused on and that may be the reason why the narrator decided to write the story, (Cardenas, 2011). Looking at her sex, and the burden she has of taking care of all her brothers, father, herself, and the son and even the husband make her disturbed.

5. Write a working thesis for your literary analysis essay below.

My working thesis will be the narrator’s story before she decided to almost give up the fight taking responsibility of providing for the needs of her father, brothers, her son, herself and even her husband and why the actions of her being found in Santa Fe participating in balancing bricks.
