Desde Chicago a México, los lugares en los que Sandra Cisneros ha vivido han servido de inspiración para sus trabajos ya clásicos de ficción y poesÃa. Sin embargo, una casa propia, un lugar en el que realmente pueda echar raÃces, la ha eludido. En esta autobiografÃa rompecabezas, formada de ensayos e imágenes a través de tres décadas (algunas nunca antes publicadas) Cisneros ha llegado por fin a casa. Escrito con su muy conocido lirismo, la autora de La casa en Mango Street, y ganadora del PEN/Nabokov Award for Achievement in International Literature 2019, comparte los recuerdos que la han transformado y revela sus influencias artÃsticas e intelectuales. Punzante, honesta y profundamente conmovedora, Una casa propia es una celebración exuberante de una vida vivida al máximo, por una de nuestras escritoras más queridas. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Winner of the PEN Center USA Literary Award for Creative Nonfiction From Chicago to Mexico, the places Sandra Cisneros has lived have provided inspiration for her now-classic works of fiction and poetry. But a house of her own, a place where she could truly take root, has eluded her. In this jigsaw autobiography, made up of essays and images spanning three decades-and including never-before-published work-Cisneros has come home at last. Written with her trademark lyricism, in these signature pieces the acclaimed author of The House on Mango Street and winner of the 2018 PEN/Nabokov Award for Achievement in International Literature shares her transformative memories and reveals her artistic and intellectual influences. Poignant, honest, and deeply moving, A House of My Own is an exuberant celebration of a life lived to the fullest, from one of our most beloved writers.
