introvertinterrupted 's review for:
The House on Mango Street
by Sandra Cisneros
This book is absolutely breath taking. The language, characters' voices, and setting was so realistic, I felt as if Sandra Cisneros could've been writing about my childhood and I'm not even Hispanic!
I even loved the author's introduction for the 25th anniversary edition. Sandra Cisneros does a good job of listing out all her inspirations and giving readers specific authors that inspired her and even the various books that she read as a child and/or during her writing process that made her want to become a writer. She also explained in the introduction the particular method she used to write her novel and paid homage to the people and experiences that helped develop the characters on Mango Street.
