Gary Soto's short story "Broken Chain" revolves around the character of Alfonso who doesn’t seem satisfied or confident about his appearance and would try to do anything to appear more handsome and cool. Set in California, the story delves into the theme of what beauty is and what it entails, despite many people looking for outward beauty.
In the given excerpt from the story, the narrator reveals Alfonso's interest in looking cool like Prince and other 'celebrities' and wanted his <em>"hair razored into a V in the back and streaked purple."</em> But deep inside, he knows his mother would disapprove it and so would his father who was a <em>"puro Mexicano"</em>.
