Response to Grace's Blog

I like how you connected this class with your high school Spanish class! As I was reading your blog I thought that the story was a little bizarre, violent, and depressing as well. This seems to be a bit of a running theme with the pieces that we read in class. I wonder if this shows us something about Latin America though. That their lives were/are full of atrocities like these, and that is why they write about such horrible things. Our lives are so great here in America, I believe we often don't think about the lives of people somewhere else.
