Esquivel makes use of a narrative technique called character foils—contrasting characters that reveal more about each other by virtue of their differences. Thus, Tita’s personality and behavior in the novel can be contrasted in meaningful ways with those of her two sisters, Rosaura and Gertrudis. The three main male characters in the book Pedro Muzquiz, John Brown, and Juan Alejandrez are other examples of character foils. Watch for these contrasts as you read. Important: As you read the selection from Equivels novel this week, ask yourself whether or not you agree fully with the views of love and/or sex presented, agree with qualification, or disagree. Assess the reasons for your thoughts. Compose and post a thread of at least 500 words, in which you compare and contrast Tita and her two sisters, Rosaura and Gertrudis. Comment specifically on the differences in their personalities, their moral decision-making, and their approaches to love and sex. With which sister do you have the most sympathy? Why? With which sister do you have the least sympathy? Why? Please explain your thoughts in detail without summarizing any more than is absolutely necessary. Reply to two peers.
