Abstract

This paper explores the search for identity in the short story “Never Marry a Mexican” by Sandra Cisneros, examining such identity characteristics as ethnicity, race, gender, and marital status. Additionally, such defense mechanisms as denial and projection are analyzed, as well as the structure of the story. Overall, the analysis shows that finding one’s identity is so crucial that if a person does not comply with the conventions of human society, he or she may start looking for possibilities of identification outside the human race
