Introduction
The House of Mango Street is a novel that was written in the year 1984 by Sandra Cisneros, Mexican-American author.
The novel teaches more on the power of language and more so, the power of words.
Relegation is done to the bottom of the society for the members who can not speak English.
The author is determined and focusing to the young females who are in the school and tries to develop competence in them.
In the novel. It depicts on how females are criticized in the society and in turn posing a lesson to the other young females.
Feminist Criticism
In the novel, we are shown that, Esperanza being a young female in the school leaves the school to her own house.
In addition, she learns that lack of language is powerless as she acknowledges from her friend, Mamacita.
If I would ask, how does knowing or failing to know how to speak English affect ones living and dropping school?
Esperanza witnesses her young schoolmate females as they decide to drop school with little knowledge for marriage.
The reason for the young girls to get married is that, they only desire to escape abuses from their parents and in turn end up getting disappointments from their newly married husbands.

What control measures did Espenzera develop after getting to know the friends within her surrounding? What do you think was the main fear of Espenzera interacting with the boys?
In turn, Espenzera herself tries with all the struggle to find her place in the neighborhood and all she finds is void even in the entire world.
Therefore, the other females who did such made the worst decision on getting married to the males who lacked the real language hence developing conflicts in their marriages.
Autonomy Vs Sexuality
In the struggle to leave the neighborhood by Esperanza do not bear fruits with the reason that, as she grows mature, she too develops the desire for males.
Esperanza decides to admire the neighboring boys and as well develops the concept of being cruel and beautiful hence developing autonomy.
Do you think that Espenzera had feelings towards the male life and interaction? Assuming that you were one of them, how would sustain such situations?
Through the insults, she develops the knowledge that she would not be mature enough on proceeding with men. Therefore, she decides to live her own life with the concern of joining her less sexual friends who are Lucy and Rachel
Core Values
