In Vreeland’s short story "Magdalena Looking" you learn about Magdalena, her life and characteristics, and the background of the story through her (Magdalena) wishes. Please LIST each of her wishes and explain what you have learnt about her and the story’s background from those wishes

Explanation:

When we know Magdalena's wishes, we realize that this story is based on the lack of independence that women had in years ago. That's because Magdalena has a strong desire to be a painter, but the time she lives limits women to housework, making her parents not give her permission to paint. We also have as a background the idea that male children were valued, since Magdalena cannot spend much time with her father, as she must stay at home helping her mother to take care of the children.

By reading Magdalena's wishes, I could see how cruel society is to women, suppressing their wishes because of social standards that oppress them and prevent them from reaching goals.
