Save the Bathwater

Poetry. Latinx Studies. LGBTQIA Studies. In this gorgeous new collection of poems, Marina Carreira breathes life into the bittersweet stories of family and culture, a sensory journey into the striking beauty and hard truths of the immigrant landscape cultivated as an American experience. Her poet soul sings--like a Portuguese saudade--in service to safeguarding what has been lost and what should never be forgotten, 'to remember it all--sweat and tears, / Luso ancestry, to run roots through/ my future great-granddaughter's bones.' --Rigoberto González
