Requests:  0 Summary:  "In this stunning debut, poet José Olivarez explores the story, contradictions, joys, and sorrows that embody life in the spaces between Mexico and America. He paints vivid portraits of good kids, bad kids, families clinging to hope, life after the steel mills, and gentrifying barrios. Drawing on the rich traditions of Latinx and Chicago writers like Sandra Cisneros and Gwendolyn Brooks, Olivarez creates a home out of life in the in-between."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 811.6 Ol Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waimea Public Library (Kauai) Adult Nonfiction 811.6 Ol Checked In Add Copy to MyList
