Description

Mermaid Musings Diving in the Margins is a bilingual collection of poems divided in two parts, Part 1: Thriving in the Margins, highlights the author's sense of place, identity, grief and activism; Part II: Juicy: Loving in the Margins offers a series of erotic poems, exploring, desire, and sexual play.

From Reviewer: " This is not poetry for the shy, with every line, she pegs patriarchy, kisses the Gods, and opens her mouth, hungry for justice, dripping with pleasure. Read this with your hands trembling. Read it with the door locked, readit out loud"

Dr. Ricardo Maxario-Colon, author of " The Moor of the Bronx", " Of Jibaros and Hillbillies", and " The Recital.
