I liked the way Mango Street was built in this story. How every neighbour is a main character in their own story that we just see fleetingly as Esperanza weaves in and out of their stories. I also appreciate Esperanza being the odd one out who doesn’t really seem to be able to see all up from the dream that is a childhood on Mango Street, but who desperately wants to make her own story.
