Description
The House on Mango Street is a seminal 1984 novel by Sandra Cisneros, composed of 44 poetic vignettes that chronicle a year in the life of Esperanza Cordero, a 12-year-old Chicana girl growing up in a Latino neighborhood of Chicago. Through Esperanza’s introspective narration, the book explores themes of identity, gender roles, poverty, and the longing for a better life. Esperanza dreams of escaping the confines of Mango Street to find a place of her own, yet she comes to understand the importance of her roots and the community that shaped her. Celebrated for its lyrical prose and profound social commentary, the novel has become a cornerstone of Chicano literature and is widely studied in academic settings.
