From the back cover: In this anthology of poems, I have witnessed a sheer miracle in words: a masterful limning of the lives of New York City immigrants materialized before my eyes- Matos-Cintrón's words convey "the cargo that is the world" for these struggling, alien New Yorkers. In particular, the second poem, "La Vereda Tropical", does for Dominican immigrants in forty lines of free verse what Junot Díaz only approximates in more than three hundred pages of his prize-winning novel (this is not to belittle his masterpiece, of course, but to accentuate her masterful poetic portrait). Matos-Cintrón's artistry and sensibility here are reminiscent of Whitman's, Hughes', and de Burgos', at their most evocative poetic moments.
