    Book Description

    Told in a series of vignettes stunning for their eloquence, The House on Mango Street is Sandra Cisneros's greatly admired novel of a young girl growing up in the Latino section of Chicago. Acclaimed by critics, beloved by children, their parents and grandparents, taught everywhere from inner-city grade schools to universities across the country, and translated all over the world, it has entered the canon of coming-of-age classics.

    Sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes deeply joyous, The House on Mango Street tells the story of Esperanza Cordero, whose neighborhood is one of harsh realities and harsh beauty. Esperanza doesn't want to belong--not to her rundown neighborhood, and not to the low expectations the world has for her. Esperanza's story is that of a young girl coming into her power, and inventing for herself what she will become.

      Caramelo, Sandra Cisneros's first novel since her celebrated The House on Mango Street, weaves a large yet intricate pattern, much like the decorative fringe on a rebozo, the traditional Mexican shawl. Through the eyes of young Celaya, or Lala, the Reyes family saga twists and turns over three generations of truths, half-truths, and outright lies. And, like Celaya's grandmother's prized caramelo (striped) rebozo, so is "the universe a cloth, and all humanity interwoven.... Pull one string and the whole thing comes undone." The Reyes clan, from Awful Grandmother Soledad and her favorite son Inocencio to Celaya, follow their destinies from Mexico City to the U.S. armed forces, jobs upholstering furniture, and to Chicago and San Antonio. Celaya gathers and retells, in over 80 chapters, the stories that reinforce her family's, and subsequently her own, identity as they travel between the U.S.-Mexican border and within the United States. Rich with sensory descriptions and animated conversations and peppered with Mexican cultural and historical details, this novel can hardly contain itself. Also an acclaimed poet, Cisneros writes fiercely and thoroughly, and her characters enter and exit the page with uncommon humanity. Although the book is long--over 400 pages plus a relevant U.S.-Mexico chronology--in many ways it's not long enough. The world of the 20th-century Mexican family, and of the Reyeses in particular, is as complicated, timeless, and satisfying as our own family stories. --Emily Russin

      Book Description

      Every year, Ceyala "Lala" Reyes' family--aunts, uncles, mothers, fathers, and Lala's six older brothers--packs up three cars and, in a wild ride, drive from Chicago to the Little Grandfather and Awful Grandmother's house in Mexico City for the summer. Struggling to find a voice above the boom of her brothers and to understand her place on this side of the border and that, Lala is a shrewd observer of family life. But when she starts telling the Awful Grandmother's life story, seeking clues to how she got to be so awful, grandmother accuses Lala of exaggerating. Soon, a multigenerational family narrative turns into a whirlwind exploration of storytelling, lies, and life. Like the cherished rebozo, or shawl, that has been passed down through generations of Reyes women, Caramelo is alive with the vibrations of history, family, and love.

      5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Novel.......2007-05-25

      In this familiar story, Cisneros uses the language in a very special way. She mixes English with Spanish expressions to show its bilingual and bi-cultural heritage. A must for all those who want to know more about the Chicano reality.

      5 out of 5 stars Caramelo, an American Dream.......2007-04-22

      During the last 3 months, I have read three Hispanic books written in the USA. "Caramelo" "American Dreams" and "El Corrido de Dante". Sincerely, I believe they are the best that I read in many years.

      Sandra Cisneros moves gracefully from hope to challenge and onto nostalgia, courage, adventure, and finally to love in "Caramelo". "American Dreams" and "El Corrido de Dante" by Gonzalez-Viana are probably one of the most creative and far-reaching books about the Hispanic immigration to the United States.

      I have had the feeling that my readers are the new classic of the American literature for the present century.

      4 out of 5 stars Simply wonderful.......2007-01-06

      In Sandra Cisneros's "Caramelo" Celaya, or Lala tells story of her family who travels to Mexico City every summer to visit her "awful" grandmother. Celaya has six other sibblings and as her family is not well-off, they had to share a tiny apartment in Chicago. Through the eyes of Lala, we learned about her the relationships among her extended family, which was reminded me a lot of the "telenovelas." Their relationships were rather complex as Lala's uncles (Uncle Fat Face and Uncle Baby) were somewhat jealous of her father, and her mother did not get along with her awful grandmother at all. This almost felt like a compilation of stories from different individuals, all told by the rather observant Lala.

      I enjoyed reading "Caramelo" as the author did a fantastic job of describing the experiences of a Mexican-American family. It was also great to see things through the eyes of Lala, who was torn between two cultures and had to deal with the pros and cons of having a big family. The characters in this book were extremely memorable and their stories were well-explained. The writing was clear, concise and very conversational. I highly recommend "Caramelo" as it was highly engaging and fascinating.

      5 out of 5 stars brilla con muchos colores.......2006-11-16

      Noto que los comentarios de la edicion en espanol son todos en ingles. Porque? No los se, pero yo por mi parte estoy contentisima que lo lei en espanol. La verdad, actualmente lo estoy leyendo de vuelta. Como me encantan las voces de los personajes! Ay, cuando la abuela enojona habla es como si estuviera saliendo de las paginas una persona tan inolvidable,tan reganona, tan unica... casi puedo oir su voz en mi cocina. Y saber mas de su ninez nos ayuda en entenderla mejor (aunque sigue siendo dificil...)

      La traductora Liliana Valenzuela hizo un trabajo extraordinario con este libro. No hay nada de rigidez ni de torpeza- fluye con gracia y humor.

      Me gusta este libro bien mas que La Casa en Mango Street. Este cuento esta lleno de color, de vibracion, de gracia. Lindisimo. GRACIAS!

      5 out of 5 stars Enchanting and real.......2006-11-15

      As an English teacher and an avid reader, this is one of the best books I have ever read. Cisneros is a master of both English and Spanish and this beautifully written tale takes readers on a wonderful journey into discovery of what it means to be human. This is a fascinating novel filled with words of wisdom that cross all cultural, ethnic, and religious lines. This is a novel I will cherish.

          Book Description

          Family Pictures is the story of Carmen Lomas Garza's girlhood: celebrating birthdays, making tamales, finding a hammerhead shark on the beach, picking cactus, going to a fair in Mexico, and confiding to her sister her dreams of becoming an artist. These day-to-day experiences are told through fourteen vignettes of art and a descriptive narrative, each focusing on a different aspect of traditional Mexican American culture.

          The English-Spanish text and vivid illustrations reflect the author's strong sense of family and community. For Mexican Americans, Carmen Lomas Garza offers a book that reflects their lives and traditions. For others, this work offers insights into a beautifully rich community.

            5 out of 5 stars Another great book by Sandra Cisneros!.......2000-06-11

            I highly recommend this book because it is another marvelous work by Sandra Cisneros. Like her other book, The House on Mango Street, it offers sad tales from the hearts of young girls and is an excellent insight on the unique prose style of Cisneros. Besides being enjoyable, the Spanish version may be helpful to those studying Spanish by working on translating, otherwise, this book is still a great classic that any fan of Sandra Cisneros should enjoy!

            5 out of 5 stars Cisneros.......2000-03-30

            I love this book. Cisneros writes in such a beautiful and poetic style that I am immediately wherever she takes me. Often when reading this, I had to stop to write down certain lines that appealed to me, such as, "...I believe that love is always eternal. Even if eternity is only five minutes." Wonderful stories.

                Book Description

                Hailed as "not only a gifted writer, but an absolutely essential one" (The New York Times Book Review), Sandra Cisneros has firmly established herself as an author of electrifying talent. Here are verses, comic and sad, radiantly pure and plainspoken, that reveal why her stories have been praised for their precision and musicality of language.
