Book Reviews of The House on Mango Street
Book Review: Simple incite into growing in a Paternalistic community
Summary: 3 Stars
Cisneros' series of vignettes is an interesting look at how a young girl feels growing up in paternalistic society. Determined not to grow up a victim like the women she sees around her, Esperanza, uses writing as a way of escape. While there is little action, there is many interesting, subtle observations which make this book readable.
