The bustling, fast-paced nature of New York contrasts sharply with the tranquility of her rural surroundings, evoking feelings of insecurity and fear of the unknown. Additionally, the stories challenge her sense of identity and place, making her confront the possibility that her own world may be diminished by the modernity and complexity of urban life. This fear highlights her connection to her homeland and the changes that threaten her traditional values and way of life.
