Sandra Cisneros and “Woman Hollering Creek”
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing Sandra Cisneros and her short story “Woman Hollering Creek”. Includes an outline. Through the character of Cleofilas, Sandra Cisneros is able to exemplify many of the feminist and cultural issues which she has seen reflected in her own life. Writing from her own experiences, Cisneros would understand how Mexican women with traditional values may believe that they have no other options available to them other than to stay within an unhappy marriage. Cleofilas is able to get enough courage to break free but does not feel truly liberated until it is pointed out to her by her friend that women can “holler” for their freedom rather than wail and sob for their own pity. Cisneros would be able to best understand these concepts from her own experiences and seeing the liberal lifestyle which can exist within America yet still having the deep memories of her impoverished Mexican past. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
