Question

which best describes why cristina garcia chose a multi - narrative structure for dreaming in cuban?
○ to illustrate that immigrants must choose one cultural identity over another
○ to illustrate that there is not just one single cuban identity
○ to illustrate that the cuban revolution has not affected the younger generation
○ to illustrate that people always value their own cultural identity most

Explanation:

A multi - narrative structure can show different perspectives and experiences. In the context of Cuban identity, it can demonstrate that there are multiple ways of being Cuban, rather than a single, monolithic identity.

• Option 1: Immigrants often have hybrid identities, not a forced choice. So this option is incorrect.
• Option 2: A multi - narrative structure can show various Cuban identities (e.g., different generations, those who stayed in Cuba and those who left). This option is correct as it aligns with the purpose of a multi - narrative to show diversity.
• Option 3: The Cuban Revolution is a significant event that affects different generations in different ways. A multi - narrative can show its impact on the younger generation (e.g., through the experiences of younger characters). So this option is incorrect.
• Option 4: A multi - narrative is more about showing the complexity of identities rather than a universal claim that people value their own identity most. So this option is incorrect.

Answer:

to illustrate that there is not just one single Cuban identity
