Esta antología de poemas de Carmen Serrano nos entrega mucho de lo mejor que la autora ha venido escribiendo durante años, una labor que ha realizado con un incuestionable amor a la palabra y una resuelta necesidad de escritura, sin cuyo continuo accionar no habria sido posible que tuviesemos ahora este volumen. Quiero destacar la pasion que anima estas paginas, una pasion que se mueve como en una incierta penumbra desde la cual la autora va mirando y padeciendo la realidad, la va transfiriendo a los textos para que podamos dialogar con ella en una intimidad que nos habla y nos recuerda nuestras propias vivencias. Es este un libro de quien ha vivido y soñado, de quien ha deseado y esperado con una intensidad muy suya, y ha querido que compartamos con ella su soledad y su angustia, su plenitud y su extrañeza. Lo que aqui hallamos se nos aparece entonces como una dilatada batalla que no siempre sabemos como comenzo, pero que estamos conscientes de que nos acompañara toda la vida.

Featuring the work of Black women poets from Botswana to Brazil, in this collection, we encounter ancestors who made love, just for the sake of love, and women who die with each orgasm while attempting to mark the extent of their own humanities.This is for the nuns, the singers, the clowns, the diviners and the conjurers who reject the constant attempt to clean up history. The wildly imperfect women of slick braids, shiny skin and succulent lips, building new homes from clouds for future legions.Here congregate the women, womxn and womyn who do not believe in tough love that disguises hurt just to prove a point. They dance with the dead with exquisite feet, cheekbones high, reflecting their mothers smiles.Because no one claps for martyrs, these dirty/pretty women learn to walk cities like they own them, choosing the battles of their hearts.If this collection teaches anything, it is that love is always messy, that our sacrament requires wet wipes and that we are just flesh and bone honing practice.

Waymaking is an anthology of prose, poetry and artwork by women who are inspired by wild places, adventure and landscape.Published in 1961, Gwen Moffats Space Below My Feet tells the story of a woman who shirked the conventions of society and chose to live a life in the mountains.
