Este libro es como una buena taza de café, completamente cálido y acogedor y, lo mejor de todo, fuerte.

Very relatable and light read. I enjoyed all of the stories and I think if I were to write a book about my childhood memories it would be a lot like this. There was a rhythm to the stories which I liked but towards the end it felt redundant. Also, IOWA MENTION!!

This is such a beautiful, brilliant collection of prose poetry that shows the beauty and pain of a life most of us can’t imagine.
