?The House on Mango Street? by Sandra Cisneros is a story told through the eyes of a young girl struggling with the neighborhood she lives in. Her house on Mango street is not a dream home, but ?temporary, says Papa.? (5) Life on Mango street is not perfect, but Esperenza has a certain sense of hope that she will someday be able to leave and have a life of her own. However, it is not the physical street, or the actual home that she needs to leave, it?s the things that her home represents. Mango street represents a woman, stuck at home, always waiting for some one to come save her from the all controlling man.
