Read the passage from "Names/Nombres" by Julia
Alvarez.
By the time I was in high school, I was a popular kid,
and it showed in my name. Friends called me Jules or
Hey Jude, and once a group of troublemaking friends
my mother forbade me to hang out with called me
Alcatraz. I was Hoo-lee-tah only to Mami and Papi and
uncles and aunts who came over to eat sancocho on
Sunday afternoons - old world folk whom I would just
as soon go back to where they came from and leave
me to pursue whatever mischief I wanted to in America.
JUDY ALCATRAZ, the name on the "Wanted" poster
would read. Who would ever trace her to me?


Sagot :

The main idea seems to be Julia is having trouble adapting to where she’s at because of her culture.
