I Am Not That Body
Ese Cuerpo No Soy
Through poems about femicide, immigration, extinction and survival, disappearing landscapes, displaced peoples, and the inhospitable climates (geographically and metaphorically) that remain in their wake, Verónica González Arredondo explores the arid desert ecosystems of Mexico with superb side-by-side translations by Allison A. deFreese.
