Red Canyon Falling on Churches - Paperback

by Juliana Aragon Fatula (Author)

In this High Plains Book Award winning collection of poems, a combination of nature, spirituality, myth, and ritual are combined with a no-holds-barred honesty. The poems discuss the difficulties of escaping the bonds of race and gender to prevail in an unjust world for a female Hispanic writer. Experiences are shared within that are wondrous, spirited, comic and disturbing.
