I feel the Narvo Cemetery is an essential setting to this heart-felt, action packed novel.
Why? That's where they find the millions of dollars (six million to be exact)!
The cemetery looks like a happy place when the Day of the Dead celebration is on, but when that's not on it looks like a dull scary place. The wind whips through the headstones around your legs and the near dead, leafless trees reach over like they're going to grab you.
I think that finding the money was an important part of the novel because that’s what they had risked everything for. It meant a lot to the people that they meet on the way.
Before Rat, Gardo and Raph found the money they meet Pia Dante’s ghost and she was asking for her Dad, Jose Angelico. She was very gloomy that her Dad didn't come, she didn't know he was dead. The reason he didn't come as a ghost is because nobody buried his body therefore his spirit couldn't come into existence as a ghost.
Rat, Gardo and Raphaels brilliant idea of throwing the money at the dumpsite happened when they were in the Naravo Cemetery.
They threw the money across the dumpsite because they knew the money wasn't theirs to keep so they shared it.
On top of a large mountain of rubbish they threw the millions in the air and the wind blew it through the mountains of waste and poorly built shacks. Hopefully to help the families living in the dumpsite.
In summary I chose the Naravo Cemetery as my important setting from the novel Trash. Rat, Gardo and Raphael had interesting times in the cemetery finding a whole lot of money, meeting the haunting ghost Pia Dante and came up with the amazing idea of sharing the millions, in doing so the money will make some families lives easy and happier now and in the future.

That’s where Rat, Gardo and Raphael met the teary, sad soul of Pia Dante, a ghost who roams the cemetery waiting for her Dad.
I forgot that Pia Dante was a human i thought she was a ghost.
