Bøker av Rosa Alcala

"The prose poems in YOU scour the distance between girlhood and motherhood with wit, fraying into ruminations on all that's inherited as a woman surviving gendered violence. Rosa Alcalâa 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 feminine survival. YOU ruminates on daughterhood, mothering, and the body's cumulative wisdom"--

"Rosa Alcala is uncompromising, wry, and brutal: all of the qualities that significant poetic works of cultural criticism require." - Carmen Gimenez Smith
