The Red Moon
Annie is a soft spoken, kind, and caring eleven-year-old who is tossed in the foster care system after losing her family in a tragic accident. In a foster home, she has one feisty sister and one who despises her so that she'll do all she can to make her life miserable. Annie must battle her foster sister, adjust to a new life in a different neighborhood and a new school where rumors are easily started, and deal with the emotions and turmoil of an adolescent without the guidance or support of her mother. Although finding an ally, she must find her inner strength to survive the experiences of a cruel world of adolescents.

The author reconfigures the traditional reading of Vallejo only as a poet of pain and human suffering, and offers new ways of understanding the relationship between poetry and politics.

Scales
First published in 1923, just before César Vallejo left Peru for France, Scales combines prose poems with short stories in a collection that exhibits all the exuberance of the author's early experimentalism. A follow-up to Vallejo's better-known work, Trilce, this radical collection shattered many aesthetic notions prevailing in Latin America and Europe. Intermingling romantic, symbolist, and avant-garde traditions, Scales is a poetic upending of prose narrative that blends Vallejo's intercontinental literary awareness with his commitment to political transformation. Written in part from Trujillo Central Jail, where Vallejo would endure some of the most terrifying moments of his life, Scale...
