NATIONAL BESTSELLER\u00a0\u2022\u00a0A coming-of-age classic about a young girl growing up in Chicago\u00a0\u2022\u00a0Acclaimed by critics, beloved by readers of all ages, taught in schools and universities alike, and translated around the world\u2014from the winner of the 2019 PEN\/Nabokov Award for Achievement in International Literature.<\/p>\n

\u201cCisneros draws on her rich [Latino] heritage…and seduces with precise, spare prose, creat[ing] unforgettable characters we want to lift off the page. She is not only a gifted writer, but an absolutely essential one.\u201d\u00a0\u2014The New York Times Book Review<\/p>\n

The House on Mango Street is one of the most cherished novels of the last fifty years. Readers from all walks of life have fallen for the voice of Esperanza Cordero, growing up in Chicago and inventing for herself who and what she will become. \u201cIn English my name means hope,\u201d she says. \u201cIn Spanish it means too many letters. It means sadness, it means waiting.”<\/p>\n

Told in a series of vignettes\u2014sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes joyous\u2014Cisneros\u2019s masterpiece is a classic story of childhood and self-discovery and one of the greatest neighborhood novels of all time. Like Sinclair Lewis\u2019s Main Street or Toni Morrison\u2019s Sula, it makes a world through people and their voices, and it does so in language that is poetic and direct. This gorgeous coming-of-age novel is a celebration of the power of telling one\u2019s story and of being proud of where you’re from.\u00a0<\/p>\n
