This critically acclaimed classic by Sandra Cisneros tells the story of Esperanza Cordero,  a young latina growing up in Chicago.  Rather than a plot with a beginning and an end,  Esperanza's story consists of a series of brief vignettes that create a mosaic, fragmented prices that come together to form a complete portrait of an immigrant girl's life.    


The author's comments:

I didn't quite enjoy this novel mainly because I could not relate to the characters but all in all a good story.
