La casa en Mango Street

Sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes intensely joyful, The House on Mango Street tells the story of Esperanza Cordero, in whose neighborhood cruel realities and severe beauty coexist. Esperanza doesn't want to belong—neither to her neighborhood nor to the low expectations that the world offers her. Esperanza's story is that of a young woman trying to achieve her own power and invent her own future.
