From the Womb of Sky and Earth - Leslie Contreras Schwartz

Descriere

nThrough intimate lyrical prose and fractured, nonlinear snapshots, From the Womb of Sky and Earth recounts a poet's coming-of-age through a maze of abusive relationships and mental illness, woven through with glimmers of fierce love and ferocity. Punctuated by meditations on mythology and the Maya creation story, Contreras Schwartz examines the journey to hard-won autonomy, resilience, and self-discovery through motherhood.n n nn nWinner of the C&R Press 2022 Nonfiction Awardn
