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.

Myself

October 1, 1987: It is hard to be yourself in this world. If you are different, you don't belong and that hurts. This is how I feel now, when I am almost 30. It is not something I would choose. Not that I want toblend in and be invisible, but not being taken into account is not my idea of fun, either.

In

September 5, 1987: I feel like I'm out, out all the time. I am isolated, an outsider and even here living in Argentina with my Tia, it still feels yucky. Tired of that feeling. It never really goes away.
