Lessons on expulsion
Erika L. Sánchez's debut poetry collection delves into the experience of living between borders—countries, languages, and states of being. As the daughter of undocumented Mexican immigrants, Sánchez shares her personal story alongside the lives of others, confronting themes of sex, shame, race, and the harsh realities of xenophobia in America. This urgent collection offers a powerful look at survival through a journalist's unblinking gaze.
