Answer 1

Answer: Esperanza says that while she has inherited her great-grandmother’s name, she does not want to “inherit her place by the window.”

Explanation: Esperanza would like to change her name to one that expresses her true self. She also may describe herself as red balloon tied to an anchor because she is trying to let go, or feels as if something is holding her back.
