Prior to the arrival of the Spaniards, Mexico's society was one of informal polygamy and all worked for the good of the group to which they belonged.

Cisneros: The House on Mango Street
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp) The House on Mango Street (1989) is a
deceptive work. It is a book of short stories-and
sometimes not even full stories, but character
sketches and vignettes-that add up, as Sandra
Cisneros has written, "to tell one big story,
each story contributing to the whole-like beads in
a necklace." Conversations and the physical
structures (Zuercher ppg) in this book of short
stories, relate the economy, the culture, and the
physical conditions of the neighborhood.
Bibliography lists 2 sources.
