Lima :: LimoÌn illuminates both the sweet and the sour of the immigrant experience, of life as a woman in the U.S. and Mexico, and of the politics of the present day. Drawing inspiration from the music of her childhood, her lyrical poems focus on the often-tested resilience of women. Scenters-Zapico writes heartbreakingly about domestic violence and its toxic duality of macho versus hembra, of masculinity versus femininity, and throws into harsh relief the all-too-normalized pain that women endure. Her sharp verse and intense anecdotes brand her poems into the reader; images like the Virgin Mary crying glass tears and a border fence that leaves never-healing scars intertwine as she stares down femicide and gang violence alike. Unflinching, Scenters-Zapico highlights the hardships and stigma immigrants face on both sides of the border, her desire to create change shining through in every line. Lima :: LimoÌn is grounding and urgent, a collection that speaks out against violence and works toward healing"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 505 0 $a Lima limoÌn :: infancia -- Neomachismo -- In the age of Los Zetas -- Lima limoÌn :: Azahar -- At a party I tell a story & ask: -- I am aÌ la mode -- My macho takes care of me good -- Lima limoÌn :: madurez -- Women's work -- He has an oral fixation -- Lima limoÌn :: vejez -- Sonnet for a dollar -- Kept -- Discovery -- I didn't know you could buy -- Lima limoÌn :: decrepitud -- Macho :: hembra -- She is aÌ la mode -- My gift -- Macho :: hembra -- Aesthetic translation -- He finds a kissing bug -- More than one man has reached up my skirt -- Ixmiquilpan, Hidalgo, MeÌxico -- Macho :: hembra -- In the culture of now -- The women wear surgical masks -- Libro gore -- Macho :: hembra -- A crown of gold snakes on my head -- My brother -- Notes on my present: a contrapuntal -- Macho :: hembra -- Body -- There is no such thing as confession in Latinx poetry -- Macho :: hembra -- You are a dark body -- I wait for a bus -- Bad mother :: bad father -- Receta en el cajoÌn -- There is a bird in my mouth -- For my son born in la Mariscal -- Last night I was killed by man -- Criada -- I am with child -- Argyria -- Marianismo -- Buen esqueleto -- The hunt. 650 0 $a American poetry $x Mexican American authors. 650 0 $a American poetry $x Women authors. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 21st century. 941 $a 4 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010020847.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20200130011851.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210024050.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190702013714.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=28C01956550D11E9884C074097128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
