Description
"'I am more than the smell / of fear grasping my collar,' Lorna Dee Cervantes tells us in one of the powerful poems in this new collection. Indeed, she is. But Cervantes' brilliance here is her ability to speak the fear as well as the resistance to that fear. These are magnificent poems. I read (the) book in the dark of the night. The poems glowed like stars."—Margaret Randall
"...a keenly observed, politically charged, uncompromising tour of the poet's mind and our world. This book might be the instruction manual we all need."—Camille Dungy, Orion Magazine
