Anotace knihy

"There are magical moments and poetic turns in these big wonderful poems that sing of family, of barrio, of dirt, of work, of play, of celestial dreams... of what it is to be Mexican in the United States-ni de aqui , ni de alla, but always landing on solid ground, proof we belong anywhere. Donato Martinez has concocted an expansive and rich collection."

​

-Luis J. Rodriguez, author of Always Running: Mi Vida Loca/Gang Days in L.A., Borrowed Bones, and From Our Land to Our Land

​

"Through his palabras, Donato Martinez presents and pays homage to the many men and women who often are excluded from our history books. He acknowledges their being, their presence, and the many contributions they make to our everyday life. Donato's poems make sure that we recognize their sudor, their hours of excessive work, and understand that they keep our cities in motion."

​

-Angelina F. Veyna, Emeritus Professor of History, Santa Ana College

​

"Donato Martinez's poems bring me joy. Like sitting on a porch hearing your elders tell tales, like relaxing with friends shooting the shit, like the best hip hop of the 90s, like family breakfast on Sunday morning. Pull up a chair and treat yourself."

​

-Tomas Moniz, author of Big Familia

​

"Donato Martinez successfully gives us back the essence of poetic flow that's been missing from our lives during these uncertain times. His unique style, rhyme and cadence pull me back into the days of giving a damn and living life freely at the same time. Each metaphor serves to bring the reader into Martinez's world of cultura, familia, and comunidad that made him into who he is today. If you've never had days filled with wonderment, fear, laughter, and a sense of urgency all balled into one moment, do yourself a favor and float through his home-grown narration intentionally without pause."
