Esperanza explains how neither she nor Nenny she Earl, except when he leaves to go to his night job and when he comes back; and, sometimes, when he comes outside to tell the kids on the street to quiet down. Esperanza explains how Earl seems to hide from the world and not much is known about him.

Esperanza also talks about how she is scared of Sire but will not let him know that.]]> 2020-02-12 20:07:09 UTC https://padlet.com/23akhorshidi53265/mzbndl1iyryv/wish/444630398 23bparker52057 https://padlet.com/23akhorshidi53265/mzbndl1iyryv/wish/444630402 Cisneros is establishing how Earl doesn’t enjoy  company and how he prefers to be alone. The reason she characterizes him in this light is to put a different feeling to Esperanza’s neighborhood. A feeling of loneliness. Cisnros’ explanation of the door also reflects how Earl has someone who prefers to be alone and a someone who stays locked up in the darkness, away from the outside world. ]]> 2020-02-12 20:07:09 UTC https://padlet.com/23akhorshidi53265/mzbndl1iyryv/wish/444630402 23bbutler18858 https://padlet.com/23akhorshidi53265/mzbndl1iyryv/wish/444630711 Cisneros establishes the feeling of otherness through the character of Esperanza. Esperanza constantly feels by herself and can't rely on someone to comfort here. Cisneros uses Lois as Esperanza's fantasy of who she wants to be. Lois has everything that Esperanza wants and even more. This shows how Esperanza feels like a other in Mango Street

Cisneros uses Esperanza to make her  seem more relatable As people in this age go through emotions that they cannot display to parents, or friends. Cisneros also uses internal monologue to show the emotions that Esperanza feels towards Sire but can't express.

She is able to represent more about Earl through his actions and thoughts, rather than saying it directly.]]> 2020-02-12 20:08:30 UTC https://padlet.com/23akhorshidi53265/mzbndl1iyryv/wish/444631351 23bparker52057 https://padlet.com/23akhorshidi53265/mzbndl1iyryv/wish/444631821 This quote relates to the theme of otherness, of how Earl is locked away from the rest of society, and how his figure gives off a feeling of sadness. This is portrayed through the phrase on how his sigh gives off a feeling of dampness.

How did you hold her? Was it? Like this? And when you kissed her? Like this?”    (Cisneros  73).]]> 2020-02-12 20:09:48 UTC https://padlet.com/23akhorshidi53265/mzbndl1iyryv/wish/444632229 23bbutler18858 https://padlet.com/23akhorshidi53265/mzbndl1iyryv/wish/444633340  Esperanza represents the curiosity a growing tween has when they see a different gender. She does this by thinking about what would happen if this or that happened and the emotions she would feel if it did. She becomes more relatable to the audience by wanting to break her parents wishes and boundaries they have set by saying she wants to stay out late but is trapped by her family’s expectation of her.
