Cisneros' The House on Mango Street

Sometimes in life life people want something they do not have. Whatever people expect from stars and candles, these wishes do not seem to react. Everyone felt a painful disappointment on Christmas morning, and they finally realized that they can not get what they want. This is exactly the same as Cisneros's role at House of Mans Street. Unlike us, disappointment of these roles began in childhood. Esperanza, Rachel, Nenny, Sally, Lucy are the children who grew up on Mango street.

The house on Mango Street in Cisneros is a novel about the importance of not forgetting her hometown. Esperanza, a Latin girl and the protagonist of the story, wants to use a different name away from Mango Street. Esperanza wants to leave the community around Mango Street and play a greater role in the new society. But at the same time she knows "I can not forget who you are" (Cisneros 105). Because of this statement and other similar statements, the House of Mangoes street is extremely concerned about maintaining self identity. These themes are also posted in Cessnell's short stories such as "Do not marry Mexican people", "Barbie Q", "Only daughter". It is due to the success of these stories that helped the Cisneros audience share the experiences of a few people.

The style of Mango Street's Sandra Cisneros in the novel "Mango Street House" is beyond poetry and short stories. The novel is written in an easy-to-read series of poetic episodes. The combination of these unique attributes creates a unique style and structure backbone of Cisneros. This novel is like a poem, so it confuses many critics and readers, but in reality it is a story.
