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.

Wealthy Family

June 9, 1987: I could get a chance to teach the children of a wealthy family in Cordoba. Cordoba is about 8 hours from Buenos Aires by bus. My Tia? How to take her with me? I can't leave her by herself here.

No More!

June 1, 1987: I will have no more thoughts of Luis. He's still a man to me and not a priest, but no more anything. Getting over him is extremely hard to say the least.

Move

May 21, 1987: I have a feeling we'll be making another move soon. I thought we were safe here. If we couldn't have San Vicente, we at least had this. Not true at all.

Answers

May 20, 1987: Who has an answer for me, Ani, 28 years old? I see no one. There's just frustration right now. And I'm not near anything. I'm not.
