The anthology includes poems from established writers across several generations (for example, Eduardo C. Corral, Adélia Prado, Lorenzo Thomas) as well as poems from first-time authors. Taken together, their words provide rich insights into the emotional struggles of children of immigrants. These poems examine how changing identities clash with traditional Latino values or beliefs through the perspectives of people who are LGBT, female, American-born or raised, speak only English, are Black, or nonreligious. Editor Katherine Duarte writes, \"By sharing our stories, we find permission to feel deeply-and to let love, even grief-stricken love, be our guide toward something new.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKatherine Duarte is a graduate of the University of Connecticut.
