ABOUT THE AUTHOR
“Jimmy Baca’s new book brilliantly reimagines the epic poem—and reshapes the epic hero as a young immigrant woman struggling to escape violence and find the child that has been torn away from her. A work that speaks strikingly and passionately of our times.” —Richard Blanco
“[Baca] writes with unconcealed passion . . . both an intense lyricism and transformative vision.” —Denise Levertov
“[Baca’s] voice, brutal and tender, is unique in America.” —Ilan Stavans, The Nation
“What makes [Baca’s poetry] a success is its honesty, a brutal honesty, as well as his original imagery and the passion of his writing.” —Gary Soto, The San Francisco Chronicle
