Paragraph 1

Isabel Allende blames Chilé's political problem's on the country's instability. She brings this across through several aspects of the novel. Socially, there is diversity among the classes and political views, as well as rebellions which express the discontentment of the society, and rape which shows the inequality among the sexes. All of these contribute to Chilé's instability. Economically, food shortages increase segregation among the classes. There are also several political and military aspects that contribute to Chilé's instability.
