Book excerpt: Winner of the PEN Center USA Literary Award for Creative Nonfiction • From the celebrated bestselling author of The House on Mango Street: "This memoir has the transcendent sweep of a full life.” —Houston Chronicle 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 2019 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yes, you better believe it! You CAN own your own home … and this book will show you how. Owning a home is NOT reserved for a select few, and although everyone wants to own their own property, too many are unaware that this possibility exists for everyone. Without the necessary information, the process seems overwhelming. Where to begin? What are the requirements? Where am I going to get that kind of money? Too often, one gives up before even trying. There is no rule that says you have to pay rent to a landlord for the rest of your life. It takes only that first step – the realisation that it can be done. And this book will show you how, by breaking down a seemingly complex process into simple, logical and easy-to-understand actions. Real-life case studies highlight the common errors many of us commit, until we know better. It is only once these patterns are recognised that they can be remedied. If your dream is to own your own home for generations to come, this book will help you every step of the way! a.

Including indications of costs and timescales, Self-build demystifies the process of budgeting, finding a site, gaining planning permission, designing your home and all of the surrounding issues to do with sustainability, planning, regulations, procurement and the use of building contracts.
