Crazy Chicana in Catholic City - Paperback

by Juliana Aragon Fatula (Author)

"Juliana Aragón Fatula writes histories so terrifying they feel as if they were written with a knife. She writes with craft and courage about what most folks are too ashamed to even think about, let alone talk about. Her fearlessness is inspirational. This is the kind of poetry I want to read; this the kind I want to write. She makes me feel like writing poetry!" -Sandra Cisneros
