Different Circumstances to use in essay
RELATIONSHIP WITH ERICA- The name Erica is the last five letters of America and while I don’t think she’s a complete representative of America, I do however believe she is Changez’s American dream. When he first meets Erica he is completely enamored with her. On the surface she’s perfect-fun loving, intelligent and beautiful but underneath that she’s not what he thinks she is which leads him to grow bitter. This is symbolic of his relationship with America. When he first arrived he fell head over heels in love with the country until 9/11 when he experienced extreme racism and discrimination. Changez grows resentful and realizes America wasn’t what he once believed it to be just like his relationship with Erica.
