From the Chicago neighborhoods where she grew up and set her groundbreaking The House on Mango Street to her abode in Mexico, in a region where "my ancestors lived for centuries," the places Sandra Cisneros has lived have provided inspiration for her now-classic works of fiction and poetry. But a house of her own, where she could truly take root, has eluded her. With this collection--spanning nearly three decades, and including never-before-published work--Cisneros has come home at last. Ranging from the private (her parents' loving and tempestuous marriage) to the political (a rallying cry for one woman's liberty in Sarajevo) to the literary (a tribute to Marguerite Duras), and written with her trademark sensitivity and honesty, these poignant, unforgettable pieces give us not only her most transformative memories but also a revelation of her artistic and intellectual influences. Here is an exuberant, deeply moving celebration of a life in writing lived to the fullest--an important milestone in a storied career."--Publisher information. 000745086 60010 $$aCisneros, Sandra$$xHomes and haunts. 000745086 60010 $$aCisneros, Sandra$$xFamily. 000745086 650_0 $$aMexican Americans$$zMexico$$vBiography. 000745086 650_0 $$aMexican American women authors$$vBiography. 000745086 650_0 $$aAuthors, American$$y20th century$$vBiography. 000745086 655_7 $$aAutobiographies.$$2lcgft 000745086 85200 $$bgen$$hPS3553.I78$$iZ46$$i2015 000745086 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:745086$$pGLOBAL_SET 000745086 980__ $$aBIB 000745086 980__ $$aBOOK
