By Achy Obejas
Boomerang / Bumerán by Achy Obejas digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A bilingual poetry collection from a Cuban-American writer-activist that explores themes of identity, sexuality, and belonging

A unique and inspiriting bilingual collection of lyrical poetry written in a bold, mostly gender-free English and Spanish that address immigration, displacement, love and activism.

The book is divided into 3 sections: First, poems addressing immigration and displacement; secondly, those addressing love, lost and found, and finally, verses focusing on action, on ways of addressing injustice and repairing the world. The volume will be both inspiration and support for readers living with marginalized identities and those who love and stand with them.

“Thank you to Beacon for giving me a free copy of this book in a giveaway for review. Boomerang is a very raw poetry and prose collection dealing with immigration and displacement, love and loss, and how to take action against and addressing injustice split into three separate sections. I genuinely really enjoyed this book, especially the last section dealing with injustice. The last two pages were very powerful. I especially love that this collection can be read in English read right side up, and in Spanish if you flip the book upside down. A beautiful touch that goes with the theme of the book perfectly.”
