i loved cisneros writing style in this book and the structure of each chapter being a different vignette, all encompassing the overarching theme of home, with the subtheme of latin experiences. as a latina, this book resonated with me in a sense.
i remember reading “bums in the attic” in ninth grade, so revisiting this book was fun

What a beautiful little collection of vignettes that explore the meaning of “home” and how different that word can feel in each of our mouths
