Cathy’s family is no better than Esperanza’s, and Cathy must also create a dream of a better life for herself – that she is related to royalty. This shows racism because of the fact that Cathy is separating herself from Esperanza and Mango Street.

Similes are used when describing the cats and what Cathy's house is like. The cats could also symbolize Cathy's "subjects" because she is moving to France to inherit a house that belonged to her rich cousin which is similar to being royal. Cisneros also uses alliteration to describe the cats. ]]> 2019-02-12 01:24:56 UTC https://padlet.com/22mlewis29804/ke0ccp72cms7/wish/330156778 22mlewis29804 https://padlet.com/22mlewis29804/ke0ccp72cms7/wish/330157315 This shows stereotypes.
