by Ceasar K. Avelar (Author), David A. Romero (Prepared by), Lee Ballinger (Foreword by)
"Ceasar K. Avelar swings a Central American hammer in poems that sing the working life while also decrying the gaps and empties. He's a powerful voice from the Central American migrant stream essential to the 'essential workers' risking life and family to keep economies going, even in pandemics."
-Luis J. Rodriguez, former Los Angeles' Poet Laureate, author of Borrowed Bones: New Poems from the Poet Laureate of Los Angeles"When the particles settle, Cesar K. Avelar will go down as one of the greatest working-class poets of our time."-William A. Gonzalez, award winning author of Black Bubblegum"Ceasar Avelar writes for the people in the trenches, for the marginalized, for those who sometimes feel as though they have no voice. The power of his words jump from the page. He is not writing to impress, he is writing to inspire."-Jeffery Martin, author of Ripples, Shadows & Huddled Scraps"Ceasar K. Avelar's poetry is exquisite, fierce and courageous. A harrowing denunciation of the exploitation endured by today's immigrant factory workers, but more importantly, a testament of the worker's indomitable spirit to subvert their dehumanization while dreaming and asserting the possibility of a life of respect and hope." -Angelina Sáenz, Author of EdgecliffMade with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
