Summary
La casa en Mango Street es la extraordinaria historia de Esperanza Cordero. Contado a través de una serie de viñetas —a veces desgarradoras, a veces profundamente alegres— es el relato de una niña latina que crece en un barrio de Chicago, inventando por sí misma en qué y en quién se convertirá. Pocos libros de nuestra era han conmovido a tantos lectores.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Praised by critics, admired by readers of all ages, in schools and universities across the country, and translated into a multitude of languages, now comes a new Spanish translation by Fernanda Melchor of this classic.
The House on Mango Street tells the extraordinary story of Esperanza Cordero. Told through a series of vignettes — sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes deeply joyful — this is the tale of a Latin girl who grows up in a Chicago neighborhood, discovering for herself what and who she will become. There are only a few books in this era that have touched so many readers.
