I really enjoyed your thoughts on the ending to this novel! I am curious to read how the novel actually ended because this reading actually was really good and interesting to me. I enjoy the short stories/novels way more than the more educational and informational readings (although I know they are necessary and important to read). I agree with you that she needed racial equality and thought that marrying a white man high up in society would help. I bet it might of helped a little but I do not think that Cecelia and Leonardo would last very long seeing that their values are kind of messed up. It is interesting to me how stubborn Cecelia is and how she would only even consider a white man. I agree with everyone else along with you; That there is not much hope for a happy ending. I really enjoyed your alternative ending and creative writing and hopefuly, that is not the way she dies... because that is sad.
