Marina Carreira

Save the Bathwater Marina Carreira

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
