In her debut collection of poetry and prose, Perros Argentinos, Justine Marrion Massey gives a fearless recounting of her travels through Argentina and Uruguay, and back to California, where along the way she discovers that true freedom comes not from escape but from deep connection.
Through poetry, narrative vignettes, and reflections that move between English and Spanish without losing the thread, Massey creates a sensory tapestry of dusty roads, mountain vistas, and late-night conversations with strangers who become family.
The collection moves between moments of transcendent beauty-handstands on multicolored hills, impromptu musical sessions in garages-and confrontations with hard truths about loss, climate crisis, and human resilience. At its core, this book asks what it means to touch the earth, to be touched by it in return, and to accept both its nurturing abundance and its wounded state in an age of environmental upheaval and potential.
