The house on mango street ( The monkey garden )

In this chapter, Esperanza is describing this garden which used to be the home of a monkey they would come and see. But once the monkey had left, everything in the garden started to die. Then just over night abandoned cars started to appear in the garden. Soon this garden became her hangout spot and she used the cars as a hiding spot. Then she started to describe how she wanted to die there.

This chapter had some very strong thoughts of what Esperanza thought of herself and i thought it really described well how this was the place she wanted die at.
