{"product_id":"aliens-in-nyc-nemir-matos-cintron-9781500750756","title":"Aliens in NYC","description":"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. \u003cbr\u003e Bronco Castro, Writer\/Attorney, Montclair, NJ \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nemir Matos Cintron\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1500750751\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781500750756\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/13\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 38\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.08d","brand":"Nemir Matos Cintron","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445230612735,"sku":"9781500750756","price":7.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ef38b6b2-eaad-4d33-a189-a9380c6fe1d2.jpg?v=1777217362","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/aliens-in-nyc-nemir-matos-cintron-9781500750756","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
