In a trilingual collection--presented in Nahuatl, Spanish, and English--JoaquÃn Zihuatanejo unflinchingly captures the duality of immigrant experiences in the United States.
Picking up where his previous collection, Occupy Whiteness, left off, Immigrant pays homage to the languages of Zihuatanejo's lineage: the Nahuatl his grandfather's grandfather spoke in, the Spanish his abuelo prayed in, and the English he himself writes in today. Sometimes brutal, always honest, these poems of witness explore what it means to cross over--and to be double-crossed.
