La Otra Chika/ The Other Girl: A Collection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218608491)

La Otra Chika is a collection of poetry and prose from the modern Latina perspective. It examines what it means to live and exist where culture, gender and self expression intersect: the in-between.

If you wanted a volume of poetry that explores the in-between, this is it. La Otra Chika jumps from line to space with a deftness and a keen eye that notices the invisible threads that connect us or rip us apart. What is left on the senses is what it means to be the other; with full-hearted sight. - Adrian Hussain Author of Crossing the Maze

Espino immerses us in a landscape where the past and present collide, the weight of cultural inheritance tangled with the pull of personal transformation. Through sharp, visceral language, we are invited into the lives of women whose voices are as layered as they are unyielding. Espino writes not just to be seen, but to make us feel the tension, the joy, and the weight of being both "other" and whole. - Caiti Quatmann, Editor-in-Chief of HNDL Magazine
