2010 Reading #32: The House on Mango Street
Books 1-10.
Books 11-20.
Books 21-30.
31. Blonde Faith by Walter Mosley.
32. The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros. A novel, or a cycle of short-shorts, or a prose poem? I experienced it more as the last, but it could be any of those things. A meditation on childhood, poverty, race, and gender; sometimes giddy, sometimes heavy with tragedy. Small without being slight.
