We Borrowed Gentleness

By J. Estanislao Lopez

Book Overview

We Borrowed Gentleness interrogates the power structures we inherit and the patriarchal violence that embeds itself in language and cultural memory. The poems leave the question open of whether man, men, a father and son, are redeemable after the surge of rising white nationalism in America. And yet, there are poems that find, still, bits of joy and perhaps a shred of hope.
