No Speak English

Sandra Cisneros

(born 1954)
In the last decade of the twentieth century, Sandra' Cisneros has established herself as one of the important new voices in American literature. Cisneros, who now lives in San Antonio, Texas, was born and raised in Chicago. The daughter of a Mexican father and Mexican American mother, she grew up in a largely Spanish-speaking neigh­borhood and spent her childhood "being quiet," as was expected of a daughter in a Latino household and of a Latina girl in the society at large.

Even in graduate school, Cisneros found that teachers paid little attention to women and that discussions excluded anyone who wasn't from a white middle-class family. When talking about the literary symbolism of houses, for example, one teacher spoke of attics (the storage space under the roof) as symbols of a family's past. Cisneros' family had always lived in an apartment and, as she says, "the third floor front doesn't come with an attic." Gradually, however, she realized there were subjects on which she was the expert. When other students talked about cupolas (a tiny room with windows on four sides on the roof of a Victorian house), she thought about narrow wooden back porches (a common feature of older three-story apartment buildings in Chicago). When oth­ers talked of swans, she thought about rats. Whatever her classmates wrote about, she presented the opposite. Gradu­ally, Cisneros found herself with a number of stories about growing up in a Mexican American community, stories that were valuable precisely because they weren't like anyone else's. Teaching high school dropouts in Chicago the next year, Cisneros gathered additional stories from her students. Soon she had a collection of forty-four, including "No Speak English." Several years later, they were published by Women of Color Press under the title The House on Mango Street.

Although Cisneros by then really wanted to be a writer, she took another teaching job to support herself. Trying to be "perfect" as a teacher brought her to near-suicidal despair, but she was rescued by a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship. "It reminded me that I was a writer," Cisneros says, "and it gave me attitude." This self-confidence was supported by critics' praise for The House on Mango Street when it was reissued by a major publisher in 1989. Since that time, she has published Woman Hollering Creek and Other Stones (1991), set mainly in San Antonio, and My Wicked Wicked Ways (1992), her first book of poetry.

The stories in The House on Mango Street are very short, some less than a page. All of them are narrated by fourteen-year-old Esperanza Cordero, a girl whose first name means "Hope." Some of the stories are about her and some are about her girlfriend Rachel; others, including "No Speak English," are about their neighbors. What do you suppose that title means? Who do you suppose says it?
No Speak English

Mamacita is the big mama of the man across the street, third-floor front. Rachel says her name ought to be Mamasota, but I think that's mean.

The man saved his money to bring her here. He saved and saved because she was alone with the baby boy in that coun­try. He worked two jobs. He came home late and he left early. Every day.

Then one day Mamacita and the baby boy arrived in a yel­low taxi. The taxi door opened like a waiter's arm. Out stepped w a tiny pink shoe, a foot soft as a rabbit's ear, then the thick ankle, a flutter of hips, fuchsia roses and green perfume. The man had to pull her, the taxi driver had to push. Push, pull. Push, pull. Poof!

All at once she bloomed. Huge, enormous, beautiful to look at, from the salmon-pink feather on the tip of her hat down to the little rosebuds of her toes. I couldn't take my eyes off her tiny shoes.

Up, up, up the stairs she went with the baby boy in a blue blanket, the man carrying her suitcases, her lavender hatboxes, a dozen boxes of satin high heels. Then we didn't see her.

Somebody said it's because she's too fat, somebody because of the three flights of stairs, but I believe she doesn't come out because she is afraid to speak English, and maybe this is so since she only knows eight words. She knows to say: He not here for when the landlord comes. No speak English if anybody else comes, and Holy smokes. 1 don't know where she learned this, but 1 heard her say it one time and it surprised me.

My father says when he came to this country he ate hamandeggs for three months. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Hamandeggs. That was the only word he knew. He doesn't eat hamandeggs anymore.

Whatever her reasons, whether she is fat, or can't climb the stairs, or is afraid of English, she won't come down. She sits all day by the window and plays the Spanish radio show and sings all the homesick songs about her country in a voice that sounds like a seagull.

Home. Home. Home is a house in a photograph, a pink house, pink as hollyhocks with lots of startled light. The man paints the walls of the apartment pink, but it's not the same

№ you know. She still sighs for her pink house, and then I think

she cries. I would.

Sometimes the man gets disgusted. He starts screaming and you can hear it all the way down the street.

Ay, she says, she is sad.

Oh, he says, not again.

¿Cuando, cuando, cuando? she asks.

!Ay, Caray! We are home. This is home. Here I am and here I stay. Speak English. Speak English. Christ!

Ay! Mamacita, who does not belong, every once in a while so lets out a cry, hysterical, high, as if he had torn the only skinny thread that kept her alive, the only road out to that country.

And then to break her heart forever, the baby boy who has begun to talk, starts to sing the Pepsi commercial he heard on TV. No speak English, she says to the child who is singing in the language that sounds like tin. No speak English, no speak English, and bubbles into tears. No, no, no as if she can't believe her ears.

Было это в 1902 году. Как они попали в Сан-Франциско? Да так как-то. Люди ехали в Сан-Франциско. Поехали в Сан-Фрн. и они. Нашему гиганту-проводнику было на вид лет сорок. Значит, попал он в Америку шестилетним мальчиком. Но это был такой русский человек, что даже не верилось, будто он умеет говорить по-английски. В Америке молокане хотели по-прежнему заняться хлебопашеством,(agriculture) но на покупку земли не было денег. И они пошли работать в порт. С тех пор сан-францисские молокане-грузчики.В городе молокане поселились отдельно на горке, постепенно настроили домиков, устроили русскую школу, и горка стала называться “ Русской горкой.”
