I’m sad for the narrator, disappointed too because I didn’t expect these passages to end up as a long account about MEN. Xuela spends her life thinking about her complicated father, then her lovers, and sometimes the irrelevant brother or repulsive gravedigger…. I am learning nothing except her suffering. I find it confusing how her suffering can be blamed solely on her motherlessness.
