Book Synopsis
"Rosa Alcala's poems dwell in the liminal space between the personal and the political--poems built on the idea that 'the world exists,' and that work to define the metaphysical and ephemeral architectures of origin, migration, nationalism, and loss. Rosa Alcala is uncompromising, wry, and brutal: all of the qualities that significant poetic works of cultural criticism require." -Carmen Gimenez Smith
