Anaya grapples with images, forces, and actions that are divided by the line between good and evil. Some characters possess more “good” than “bad,” others possess more “bad than good.” Some characters are cast in an entirely positive light, while others are dismissed as outright evil. How does the author use Narciso to problematize what it means to be “good”? Narciso is both a reckless drunk and a loyal and devoted friend. He leads a life of unethical daily behavior but demonstrates high levels of morality when it really counts. Write an essay of at least 300 words in which you analyze the author’s purpose in his depiction of Narciso. Use examples from the text to support your analysis.
