Themes All Themes. Symbols All Symbols. By the end of her chapter, Minerva has begun attending political meetings and works with Sinita and other classmates to turn the patriotic skit they perform for Trujillo into a bold protest.
This group foreshadows the revolutionary cells Minerva will be part of later in her life, including, ultimately, the Butterflies. Sinita and Elsa will both play roles in her adult political life, underscoring the theme of loyalty that runs through the book. Much younger than her sisters, she fills the early pages of her diary with excited descriptions of clothing and other childish delights. However, after she catches Minerva lying about leaving the school grounds to visit their uncle, Minerva confides in her about her growing political involvement.
She struggles with imagining that Trujillo, whom she has imagined watching over her like God, could be bad. Secrets are a motif throughout this section of the book. Secrets remain a frequent pattern throughout the book, reflecting the necessity of keeping secrets while living under a repressive political regime and the impossibility of fully understanding or negotiating rationally with a government determined to keep secrets from its people.
