Publisher's Synopsis

Set in agricultural, chicano neighborhoods of Modesto, California, where the poet grew up, as well as in gritty Hollywood streets, and hip downtown Los Angeles, these poems are beautiful and moving, telling the stories of real people, each one of whom is an "other country." There are allusions to fairy tales (Lorca, Walt Whitman, Colette, Rimbaud), tales of getting green crds, of small town drag queens, of landscape, love, and language.
