In this, Javier O. Huerta's first full-length collection of poetry, he explores themes of dislocation, loss, love, and art. Whether mourning the tragic suffocating deaths of immigrants in a tractor trailer, lamenting the loss of a lover, or writing about childhood fears, Huerta sketches haunting pieces about a bilingual, bicultural experience. Winner of the University of California-Irvine's 2005 Chicano / Latino Literary Prize, this debut collection marks the arrival of a vibrant new voice in Mexican-American literature.
