Pedro Páramo Section 7 Summary

  • The boy from Section 6 shows up to help his grandmother with the corn, and tells her he took so long because he was praying.
  • It would seem that this Susana person is up in heaven, so that's why he was talking to her in the bathroom.
  • The grandma's corn grinder doesn't work, so she sends the boy to go buy a new one on credit from Ines Villalpando, and also to ask her to lend them some other tools.
  • The boy takes off, grabbing some coins on his way out, and his mom adds some black fabric and aspirin to his shopping list.
  • At the end of the section we finally find out who this kid is: The townspeople call out to him "Pedro!" Is this the famous Pedro Páramo?
