I Am Not That Body

By Andrew Lafleche, Vernica Gonzlez Arredondo, Verónica González Arredondo

In her succinct, richly imagistic poetry, Ver nica Gonz lez Arredondo explores the arid desert ecosystems in which she spent her childhood, as well as themes related to: immigration, social justice, femicide, perilous border crossings, and the vanishings of countless girls and women in northern Mexico who were making the journey across harsh terrain toward the United States border. She writes about extinction and survival, disappearing landscapes, displaced peoples, and the inhospitable climate-physically and politically-that remain in their wake. I Am Not That Body, is the first time her work has been translated into English.
