I Always Carry My Bones
"Home is a complex ideation for many POC and migrant peoples. I Always Carry My Bones explores how familial history echoes inside a person and the ghosts of lineage dwell in a body. Sometimes we haunt. Sometimes we are the haunted. Pierced by an estranged relationship to Mexican culture, the ethereal ache of an unknown father, the weight of racism and poverty in this country, the indentations of abuse, and a mind/physicality affected by doubt, these poems root in the search for belonging-a belonging inside and outside the flesh. Space-making requires a clawing at the atrocities of today's social injustices. Space-making requires a dismantling of violent systems against brown and black bodies...
Body of Render
Body of Render explores the internal and external impacts of societal and national decisions that strip away our basic human rights through a collection of poems that carve at the physical, the political, the intimate, and the structural, where poems simultaneously create and encourage voice to seek a path toward collective mending.
Of Form & Gather
Of Form & Gather marks the dazzling debut of Felicia Zamora, whose poems concern themselves with probing questions, not facile answers. Where does the self reside? What forms do we, as human beings, inhabit as we experience the world around us? Echoing the collection’s provocative title, final judge Edwin Torres writes: “Zamora has crafted a work that celebrates form as human evolution—the poem’s breath, the poet’s body—passing over time in a landscape thirsty for passage.” Privileging journey over destination, Zamora’s poems spur the reader to immerse herself in linguistic soundscapes where the physicality of the poems themselves is, in no small part, the point: poems that challenge us to navigate the word/world as both humans and things. Edwin Torres continues: “This is quietly revolutionary work. . . . A living palimpsest to newly awaken our social engagement." With the publication of this volume, the Andrés Montoya Poetry Prize, now in its seventh edition, emphatically makes good on its aim to nurture the various paths that Latino/a poetry is taking in the twenty-first century.
Quotient
"QUOTIENT is a celebration of codes that make up our world: DNA, language, geometry, Fibonacci, song, rhizomes, the "lovely legerdemain" and arithmetic of the body. 'Do you remember / in radiolarian, the images / etched in microscopic minerals? / Once you were a butterfly,' Zamora muses; reminding us of the beauty in pattern, how each coil builds upon the next, how each mathematical sequence of our existence is a kind of quotidian magic; her poems act as microscopes fitted to the eye of the reader. A book of revelations, QUOTIENT looks past death, destruction, grief--focuses instead on the miraculous echo of tree rings, "& loss / is loss no more"--with an intensity and tenderness that catch like a sob of joy in the throat."--Deborah Miranda, author of Bad Indians: A Tribal Memoir and Alter for Broken Things Poetry.
Dear Diaspora
Outstanding Achievement Award in Poetry from the Association for Asian American Studies New Mexico-Arizona Book Award Winner Julie Suk Award Finalist Dear Diaspora is an unapologetic reckoning with history, memory, and grief. Parting the weeds on a small American town, this collection sheds light on the intersections of girlhood and diaspora. The poems introduce us to Suzi: ripping her leg hairs out with duct tape, praying for ecstasy during Sunday mass, dreaming up a language for buried familial trauma and discovering that such a language may not exist. Through a collage of lyric, documentary, and epistolary poems, we follow Suzi as she untangles intergenerational grief and her father's dis...
Instrument of Gaps
Poetry. Our intricate thinking and our ability to process the world deeply connect us as human beings. Yet we conjure inhibitors to limit our interactions with each other such as race, class, species, landscape, and limitations of understanding. Despite the barriers we construct, we are relative to each other. INSTRUMENT OF GAPS explores these intersections of humanity's innocence, curiosities, influences, impact on environments, and how we all carried along by other. In relentless acknowledgement of the gaps that exist in the mind, in society, in language, on the page, and in our natural behaviors, the poems work to uncover new ways of thinking for both writer and reader. The poems move flu...
The Fire Eater
Surreal, playful, and always poignant, the prose poems in Jose Hernandez Diaz’s masterful debut chapbook introduce us to a mime, a skeleton, and the man in the Pink Floyd t-shirt, all of whom explore their inner selves in Hernandez Diaz’s startling and spare style. With nods to Russell Edson and the surrealists, Hernandez Diaz explores the ordinary and the not-so-ordinary occurrences of life, set against the backdrop of the moon, and the poet’s native Los Angeles.

We Were the Lucky Ones
NOW A MAJOR DISNEY+ TV SERIES 1939. Three generations of the Kurc family strive to live normal lives despite the growing hardships they face as Jews. But as the realities of war rush to meet them, they are cast to the wind and must do everything they can to find their way through a devastated continent to freedom. Based on an incredible true story that ranges from pre-war Parisian jazz clubs to the desolation of the Siberian gulag, and follows the Kurc family as refugees, prisoners and fighters, We Were the Lucky Ones is a testament to the notion that even in the darkest of times, the human spirit can find a way to survive, and even triumph. 'A truly tremendous accomplishment' Paula McLain
Community Capacity and Resilience in Latin America
Community Capacity and Resilience in Latin America addresses the role of communities in building their capacity to increase resiliency and carry out rural development strategies in Latin America. Resiliency in a community sense is associated with an ability to address stress and respond to shock while obtaining participatory engagement in community assessment, planning and outcome. Although the political contexts for community development have changed dramatically in a number of Latin American countries in recent years, there are growing opportunities and examples of communities working together to address common problems and improve collective quality of life. This book links scholarship th...
