From a feminist perspective, the character Cindy is a very horrible role model and someone the modern
woman would never want to be, but she is a very core character in this novel and help the protagonist grow.
Cindy differs herself from the conventional modest woman into something all her own, she grows bored of
her husband and so needs some one new to come into her life to keep the days from going so slow. She falls
in love with Sonny from the very first time they meet. This novel most likely takes place in the early 90s
where full gender equality has been around for a long time already, No woman in the flowers acts like the
stereotypical mother or house wife. Cindy along with Silvia both grew up in a world with woman’s right as
they’re both materialistic and stand out more than any other wife or mother in the flowers. I still assume
that this novel takes place in 1992 because of that.
