Central American Counterpoetics

Connecting past and present, this book proposes the concepts of rememory (rememoria) and counterpoetics as decolonial tools for studying the art, popular culture, literature, music, and healing practices of Central America and the diaspora in the United States. Building on the theory of rememory articulated in Toni Morrison's Beloved, the volume examines the concept as an embodied experience of a sensory place and time lived in the here and now. By employing a wide array of sources, Alma's research breaks ground in subject matter and methods, considering cultural and historical ties across countries, regions, and traditions while offering critical perspectives on topics such as immigration, forced assimilation, maternal love, gender violence, community arts, and decolonization.

In 1970, a university student named Sophie discovers a cache of old letters from Spain, along with a love note in Spanish, in her grandmother Maggie’s attic. Thus begins Sophie’s long quest to solve the mystery of their origin. The letters transport Sophie to 1913 when Maggie is reflecting on her studies as a nurse and her close relationship with two Spanish siblings, Eduardo and Maria Cristina. But who were these people? How did their lives interweave with Maggie’s and why has Sophie never heard of them? As she digs deeper into the past, she learns more about her grandmother’s life and her ties to Eduardo. The Spanish Note is a gripping romance that takes the reader through an epic saga of love, friendship, and family with a generous serving of history, travel and exotic culture, dosed with medical lore. Eventually, several generations of two families, Canadian and Spanish, across two continents are united as a result of Sophie’s attempts to piece together the puzzle of Maggie’s and Eduardo’s long-ago love affair.
