Title: Spare yet interesting
Product review: I would recommend this book to just about anyone. It's not just about Mexican Americans experiencing the struggle, though the book has Mexican essence. Cisneros displayed the universal struggle for all nationalities to do better and be better than they are now, with a focus on Latin Americans. I loved the line towards the end of the book where Ezperanza is older and says she is "tired of looking at what she can't have." Cisneros also did a wonderful job in Esperanza's realization that she didn't have much to brag about. Children don't realize they are poor until they get older,around the time they discover the parents aren't perfect. I look forward to reading more of Cisneros work; her vivid capture of the Latino's world.
