Amore Divino

I thought the name Yolanda was pretty unique but in this story its not. The main character is one of many Yolanda's is going through what appears to be a much needed divorce. The way she talks about her husband John she has love for him but is no longer in love with him. The one point in the story that really stood out to me was the part where they go to the museum and look at Chagall's painting of the woman in the air and the man clinging to her ankles. I believe that Yolanda's free spirit is being held down by her husband or at least she feels that way, much like her grandmother. Although then you would have to assume that Don Edmundo was doing the same thing and the way that she described her grandmother she sounded like she was just crazy. She also talks about how her grandmother threw rice at her at the wedding as if she knew that Yolanda Jr would not be happy. I don't think that its is the specific man that makes them unhappy but just being tied down in general.
