"Winner of the Paz Prize for Poetry, this dual-language book explores perseverance and survival in the face of violence, displacement, and defeat." --Publishers Weekly

"In this bilingual edition (superbly translated from the Spanish by Lawrence Schimel) Puerto Rican poet Vazquez Paz grapples with the violence against the psyche . . . and with the violence of displacement . . . These poems are a celebration of female strength and imagination: 'I am a woman: I endure much/ but the day is short.'"--NBC Latino, one of the Best Latino Books of 2019

Previous winners of the Paz Prize for Poetry include Miami Century Fox, by Legna Rodriguez Iglesias and translated by Eduardo Aparicio, Nine Coins/Nueve monedas, by Carlos Pintado and translated by Hilary Vaughn Dobel, and Colaterales/Collateral by Dinapiera Di Donato and translated by Ricardo Alberto Maldonado.
