Answer:
Manuel and the Magic Fox takes place at the Playas Valley in April.
Explanation:
"Manuel and the Magic Fox" is a short story written by Ekaterina Sedia. The story is about Manuel, a young boy, and red fox, he meets in the forest. The girl named Tomiko is the red fox, who disguised in a human skin.
The story, "Manuel and the Magic Fox" takes place at the Playas Valley, New Mexico. The time when this story takes place is in April.
The textual evidence for this inference is:
<em>"Manuel Lainez walked across the reddish sand of the Playas Valley. The sun almost touched a low mountain range that hid the town of Lordsburg from view, and Manuel picked up his step. He had lingered at the Navajo reservation for too long, in thrall to his uncle’s tales, and now he hurried back home, to the Pueblo, the crisp April air invigorating his every step."</em>
I think Delia has put up with her husband for so long because she doesn't know any other way to live. Ever since she married him, he has been beating her and after awhile, she began to familiarize it with her husband. Also, being a God-fearing woman, she does not want to divorce her husband because that is a sin in her book so she continues to put up with her husband. However she reaches her limit when he begins to threaten her home, which is what she worked her entire life for. Instead of giving in to his demands which is what she normally does, she stands up to him because her home is the one thing that matters to her in her life and she will not abide by him any longer. Delia puts up with him because she does in a way love him, regardless of how he is. I believe it's called battered woman's syndrome, Delia has been abused by him ever since she got married to him. Usually she just ignored his anger but when she decides not to save him I think she's just thinking good riddance.
I hope this helps you out!
