Bøker av Barbara Jane Reyes

A collection of lyric essays / creative non-fiction about growing up into and practicing Pinay poetry/poetics, as a young immigrant and daughter of hustling immigrants, woman of color writer, educator and mentor.

James Laughlin Award-winning Filipina poet Barbara J. Reyes invents new mythologies melding Southeast Asian traditions with streetwise West Coast poetry.

Reyes's unapologetic intersectionally feminist "tough love" poems show young women of color, especially Filipinas, how to survive oppression with fearlessness.
