ESSAY ON: Sandra Cisneros' "The House On Mango Street" - How Esperanza's Childhood Alienation Is The First Stage In Her Reconciliation With Her Cultural Background

Number of Pages 6

This research paper: 6 pages in length. Sandra Cisneros reminds her readers how the truth within a story is that which addresses the inherently complicated and diverse attitudes as they exist within each culturally indoctrinated society. The House on Mango Street, which reflects the very truth of human nature and its often painful acceptance, represents how Esperanza's childhood alienation is the first stage in her reconciliation with her cultural background. By forging relationships with other women in the book who help her see the need to overcome such cultural oppression, while at the same time refusing to cultivate alliances with others who hold absolutely no benefit to her cultural development, Esperanza comes to understand just how important one's identity is in order to realize one's dreams. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
