    The protagonist lacks in all these three factors, making her stubborn, angry, and a know-it-all person. However, what she is not aware of is her family economic hardship neither the other kids. The innocence of the Protagonist is highly recognizable throughout the story, the taxi ride, the woman in a fur coat in the heat of summer, etc. The speaker has never seen someone in a fur coat during summer. She thinks is crazy, but that represents a symbol of wealth, something she was discovering through this lesson. Then they arrive at the toy store, and everyone is looking through the window amazed with the price tags. It took them a while to come inside the store, the kids know that they do not belong in there. Once inside, the speaker sees a clown, it is just $35 dollars really cheap compared to the other items in the store and pocket change for the rich folks. Going back to the slums in the train, the speaker starts to think a better use for that money, new bunk beds, food for her whole family, a trip to visit her grandfather, and even the rent and the piano bill. Through the process of analyzing, she said, referring to rich people: ” What kind of work they do and how they live and how come we ain't in on it?" Anger is flowing through her blood, and she questions herself why she cannot have a piece of the pie that represents the American wealth? Despite that other…

    The main theme of this novel is the change of identity. Before her journey, she was just a rich, upper class girl, who was educated. But when she was on the ship with other sailors, she had to be one of them. She wore dirty clothes that she wasn’t allowed to wear at home and didn’t care about her manners and behaviors. Her parents always told her to behave like a lady, but her identity has changed when she was on the ship; she was acting like a different person. Clearly, change of identity took place in this novel. I like how this book was written in the perspective of a teenage girl, who is about my age. I could understand the character better, and read the book from her…

Like the quote says, “The best way to find out what a certain life would be like is to walk in the shoes of one who lives it.” (Anonymous) Even if she did try to place herself in the position of the working poor, she is never going to feel the same way that they will.

    Class in Caucasia

    • 1629 Words
    • 7 Pages

    Sandy Lee, from Danzy Senna’s novel, Caucasia is born and raised into a very wealthy and well- known family. Sandy comes from the wealthy town of Cambridge, Massachusetts. Therefore, her father was a respected professor at Harvard University. Sandy received her high school diploma from Buckingham School, and gets accepted to Brandeis, which she later turned down. Sandy didn’t fit in around her community and was a rebel. She also tries to escape her upper-class lifestyle by marrying Deck, an African American who is a part of the lower class. In my essay I will argue that throughout her life, Sandy’s upper-class upbringing still impacts her personality and actions, despite her drop in economic status. I will use Paul Fussell’s essay, “A Touchy Subject” and James Lowen’s “The Land of Opportunity” to help support the central idea that although Sandy adjusted her economic status she couldn’t rid of her social status, even if she tried.…
