Project: Contemporary Short Story

I don’t know how to handle this English question and need guidance.

Isabelle Allende, “And Of Clay Are We Created” The reporter’s story is about one girl. He becomes focused on her alone as people die and the earth shifts around him. Who is Allende’s story about; who does she focus on as changes happen to many characters? Choose one of the three primary characters in the story (the narrator, the reporter, the girl) and create an argument in essay form about why Allende makes this character the center of the story. Use textual details to support your answer.
