Our new BABEL season kicks off with award-winning poet, short-story writer, novelist, essayist, performer and activist Sandra Cisneros. On October 10 at 8pm we’ll sit down with Cisneros at Kleinhans Music Hall to discuss her acclaimed novel “The House on Mango Street”.
"The House on Mango Street" is one of the most cherished novels of the last 40 years. Readers from all walks of life have fallen for the voice of Esperanza Cordero, growing up in Chicago and inventing for herself who and what she will become. “In English my name means hope,” she says. “In Spanish it means too many letters. It means sadness, it means waiting.”
