Sandra Cisneros named her collection "The House on Mango Street" to symbolize the idea of home as a place of both joy and limitation. The house represents the confinement and struggles experienced by the characters, while the street symbolizes the sense of community and interconnectedness they feel. The title captures the tension between the desire for roots and stability, and the longing for freedom and self-expression.
In "The House on Mango Street," the author personifies the house itself as a character that is oppressive and suffocating for the narrator.
