You

By Rosa Alcalá

Book Overview

From the author of My OTHER TONGUE comes a new collection of prose poetry exploring the intergenerational inheritance of gendered violence.

Rosa Alcal aacute; choreographs language to understand the body as it "gathers itself over time to become whole," recovering the speaker's intuition while unraveling memory to pinpoint the aches, anxieties, and lessons of a woman's survival. Ruminating on daughterhood, mothering, and the body's cumulative wisdom, YOU traces a jagged line through fears and joys both past and present.
