Because "Sab" is mainly about 4 characters, I think the paper could be a character analysis. It's true that there other important characters and events definitely shape the plot as well but, Theresa, Enrique, Carlotta, and Sab really are the forces that drive the story. Sab has an effect on the other 3 characters in a way that is very specific to who Sab is and his way of thinking about life. The paper could be : Discuss specific ways in which Sab had a personal effect on Theresa, Carlotta, and Enrique. Were the effects all positive and how did they respond to the effect?

How would you approach that question? What are your thoughts on it. Are there certain parallels between the four characters?
Looking back on this, I would caution you not to exclude the other characters. The two fathers are fascinating as representations of their time. The only mother in the work is an adoptive mother (Martina). And what about the absent parents of both Sab and Teresa? Teresa eventually finds God, a sort of father figure I suppose? Does something analogous happen to Sab?
