Book Synopsis

From the author of MyOTHER TONGUE comes a new collection of prose poetry exploring the intergenerational inheritance of gendered violence.


Rosa Alcalá choreographs language to understand the body as it “gathers itself over time to become whole,” recovering the speaker’s intuition while unraveling memory to pinpoint the aches, anxieties, and lessons of a woman''s survival. Ruminating on daughterhood, mothering, and the body''s cumulative wisdom, YOU traces a jagged line through fears and joys both past and present.
