Paper Summary:

This paper is an analysis of "Bless me, Ultima," by author Rudolfo Anaya. It examines the quest for identity of a young boy named Tony, in order to demonstrate to the reader that true knowledge and understanding takes a lifetime, or longer, to achieve.

From the Paper:

"In Tony s search for understanding, he comes along several dead ends, but as he begins the next chapter of his life he finally realizes that the understanding he was searching for may take a lifetime or more to gain. In the key passage Tony s dad explicitly shares with Tony the revelation he had. Understanding comes with life sometimes it takes a lifetime to acquire understanding. (Pg. 248) Although Tony had started to realize the quest for knowledge was an unending one before his father told him, his father s words only confirmed those beliefs."
