    1922 Words  | 8 Pages

    “As you grow into manhood, you must find your own truths.” This is the overall message Rudolfo Anaya conveys regarding a hero’s journey and myth in his Chicano novel Bless Me, Ultima. The protagonist of the novel, Antonio, is not the typical hero that readers expect to encounter in a novel; perhaps, this novel’s quest does not fit the typical mold since Antonio embarks on a quest of self discovery and spiritual enlightenment to new levels of understanding. As noted, Antonio hears the call to adventure which comes in the form of Ultima who serves as a mentor and key factor to provide him with the tools necessary for his mysterious future path.
