In the process of reading, I feel depressed and sad. Almost all the negative emotions came to me. Say it's like a fairy tale? I think so. It's like a fairy tale, just like Green's fairy tales. Do you know the dark truth of Green's fairy tales? The prince who awakened the princess was a cadaver, the sleeping beauty woke up as a mother of twins, and snow white vomited the apple because her corpse was whipped every day by the servant of the coffin, Cinderella's heart is venomous, and Du Songshu's story is bloody and violent. And the house on Mango Street, including the white, black and orange color illustrations, made me feel like I was in Green's fairy tale, depressed and eager to get rid of it.
To be precise, this book has no plot and no big reason. From this point of view, you may think it is dull. On the contrary, it is so close to the heart of our Maiden: some careless, somewhat flurried palpitations, some unintelligible, and of course the simplest and simplest desire to have their own house. It can be said that the fate of the emigrants on Mango Street is tragic, the marginalized people of the society, no one really knows what they are thinking, and no one wants to know their demands. They have a slovenly child, a new immigrant fat woman who listens to his mother tongue every day, and a teenager who stole Cadillac, who is caught by the police, and a single mother abandoned by a man, and a woman who wants to catch his son's son-in-law to change his fate.
In the growing annoyance, in the subtle observation of the adult world, and in almost unconscious reflection, the girl with a strong sense and sensitivity has metamorphosis. The sour green mango is mature, and the girl has formed its own independent values. It is clear that she is born with her injustices not necessarily, but can be changed. "But I decided not to grow up to be as gentle as others, and put my neck on the threshold to wait for the sweet chains", "I have started my own silent war. Simple. Firm. " She must fight against the brick and stone as hard as the four thin trees, and strive for her life by her own strength.
I thought it would be a gentle and bright book, but there was a melancholy melancholy reading. The contents and genres of the house on Mango Street are very special, poetical short sentences and words, which give the readers a wider imagination. It is a small book which is peculiar to the mango, and is bitter, sensitive and sweet.
The author said to this book: "I write not only the American thing, but also yours, and I am sure there is such a mango street in China." Yes, poor streets are everywhere, but you may only see the prosperous side of China but ignore Mango Street. China has vast territory and abundant resources, and because of this, there will be countless places, which are full of poverty, ignorance, backwardness and sadness.
