Chopper!\u003c\/i\u003e reflects the lives of Mexican Americans, immigrants, Chicanas\/os, and la joter\\u00eda--malfloras, jotos, and beautiful rainbow communities. As vividly as Mexican Technicolor, these poems capture life in the barrio: vendors hauling carts with elote, raspados, botes y m\\u00e1s. Vatos fighting to exist. Mujeres claiming space. Summer evenings, children playing in the calles of East L.A., El Paso, and bordered tierras everywhere. Reyes's work exudes the pride, strength, turmoil and struggle of neighborhoods brimming with tradition and invention, estilo a la brava. These homegrown verses reveal the barrio in all its intricate layers. Revering difference, they fight to make room for something new: Marimacha Poetry. \\u00a1Y Qu\\u00e9!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Veronica Reyes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0989036103\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780989036108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arktoi Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.03h x 7.06w x 0.34d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Lambda Literary Awards - Finalist","brand":"Veronica Reyes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44063647858943,"sku":"9780989036108","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_897aa038-df22-408a-8f95-59f6153076ba.jpg?v=1685390810","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chopper-chopper-poetry-from-bordered-veronica-reyes-9780989036108","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
