The histories of South Texas and its people unfold in Laurie Ann Guerreros stirring language, including the dehumanization of men and its consequences on women and children. Guerreros tongue becomes a palpable border, occupying those liminal spaces that both unite and divide, inviting readers to consider that which is known and unknown: the body. Guerrero explores not just the right, but the ability to speak and fight for oneself, one's children, one's community-in poems that testify how, too often, we fail to see the power reflected in the mirror.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51708880683296,"sku":"NEW0268010471","price":16.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71TUeyUBiFL.jpg?v=1779394795","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/a-tongue-in-the-mouth-of-the-dying-andres-montoya-poetry-prize-0268010471","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
