Quote borrowed from:
Article: “Dangerous Families” and “Intimate Harm” in Hemingway ”Indian Camp”
Author: Lisa Tyler
Source: Texas Studies in Literature & Language, Spring2006, Vol. 48
Issue 1, p37

“The story thus presents Nick with two alternatives for responding to women’s suffering—and the suffering in this story is once again clearly gendered suffering”



Citing More Than Three Authors:
  • Authors: Kalay, Johnston , Emerson , Allison , Diaz

Year of Publication: 2013
Pg. 120

“The name given to her is another stimulating situation reflected by Cisneros. While it means ‘complication’ or ‘chaos’ in Spanish, it means ‘faith’ and ‘desire’ in English language”

Kalay et al.  mentions that Cisneros uses code switching to give us double meanings in Spanish and in
English.
