For me it was very painful to see the youngest daughter's heart broken by her mother because of the established Mexican practice. She is a woman that lives for love and suffers her entire life because Mama Elena, her mother, wants her not to marry anyone because she is the youngest and as the Mexican tradition implies, the youngest daughter in the family is supposed to take care of her mother until she dies. Tita is the youngest daughter of the all-female De La Garza family. It is a story told by the great niece of the main character, Tita De La Garza. ![]() ![]() Like Water For Chocolate is a novel by Laura Esquivel that holds every element of life within its pages. ![]()
