With an Introduction by Oscar Hijuelos. Here is a collection of thirty-six poems, in English and Spanish, which capture the sights, sounds, and smells of Latino culture in America.

"Excellent enrichment.... Whether discussing the immigrant's frustration at not being able to speak English...the familiar adolescent desire to belong, or celebrating the simply joys of life, these fine poems are incisive and photographic in their depiction of a moment."
