Geraldo No Last Name Summary
In “Geraldo No Last Name” the culture/country is described more accurately, and the difficulties are plainly displayed and being alone there is a very dangerous situation. By using evidence from both the book and our DEJ, I can say that the culture that the story is based on has many downs, and people living alone there do not have an extra hand to help, as Geraldo was about Marin’s age, and Marin still needs an adult.
As quoted,“A hit and run, don’t you know. {...} And maybe a surgeon would’ve come, maybe if he hadn’t lost so much blood{...}” the writing accurately describes that the country/culture is more in the developing state, and does not have great medical/ healthcare, and does not have law-abiding people.(Cisneros pgs 65 and 66)
