Publisher's Synopsis
Somewhere along most women's journey, she wakes up and has lost herself. That is when Wild Woman - every woman's authentic, natural self - comes knocking at the door. Mejia's poems explore women on their way to rediscover themselves. Her poems also reawaken the lost voices of the forgotten Porvenir Masacre, tell Mejia's unique stories of growing up Mexican in Minnesota, pay tribute to the founders of the American Cowboy, and question the meaning and search for home.
