Different Flags by Eugenia Renskoff

Different Flags, a book by Eugenia Renskoff, tells the story of 26-year-old Ani. Ani leaves her comfortable but stifling life in San Francisco to travel to Argentina to comfort her widowed Aunt Esther. Once back in her native country, Ani must face her unexpected feelings of love for Padre Luis, her aunt's young and handsome parish priest. Different Flags is a study of Ani's inner conflict.

My Tia and I talk

November 26, 1982: Last night, right after dinner, my Tia and I had a heart-to-heart conversation. Now I realize that we come from 2 different generations and that we can't be alike, no matter how much we love each other. My aunt mentioned Padre Luis and my volunteer work (which hasn't even started yet). She says she doesn't want me to get hurt. Neither do I. That's something I did a lot of in my life already.And she doesn't want people to start to notice and gossip about me. But I've got to do this. I'm 26, almost 27, and it's time I wised up about men, forbidden or not. It's now or never time.
