Poetry. Translated from the Spanish by Sandra Kingery. Bilingual Edition. Come on this journey, brave the violence in Mexico, in Bosnia, in the U.S. Don’t stop. Move through the ancient and mythical, tread the mountains and valleys of the natural world, let the seas swirl at your ankles, follow the jungle trail of the tenacious Ocelocihuatl, the jaguar-woman, with each step pulsing with the unfaltering rhythms and patterns that mark these poems. Caraza’s words cast a spell, seep under our skin, into our bellies and hearts, and remind us that poetry is how we survive. –Donna Miscolta
