Paperback. Zustand: Good.

Poet, novelist, and essayist Erika L. S nchez's powerful debut poetry collection explores what it means to live on both sides of the border--the border between countries, languages, despair and possibility, and the living and the dead. S nchez tells her own story as the daughter of undocumented Mexican immigrants and as part of a family steeped in faith, work, grief, and expectations. The poems confront sex, shame, race, and an America roiling with xenophobia, violence, and laws of suspicion and suppression. With candor and urgency, and with the unblinking eyes of a journalist, S nchez roves from the individual life into the lives of sex workers, narco-traffickers, factory laborers, artists, and lovers.
