Describe the camp that Esperanza comes to live in
In Chapter Six, Esperanza sees her new home for the first time. She is horrified - the cabin is more humble than the servants’ quarters at el Rancho de las Rosas. Additionally, Esperanza and Mama will be sharing the tiny space with Hortensia, Alfonso, and Isabel. Esperanza complains that there is not enough room, it smells of onions, and in essence, they will be living like horses. When Mama expresses her gratitude for the cabin, Esperanza becomes frustrated. Mama explains patiently that what matters is that they are together and far away from Tío Luis.
