You can find all of that and a hint of raw sugarcane in these pages. Frank X Walker, Editor of PLUCK! The Journal of Affrilachian Arts & Culture; Author of Affrilachia,When Winter Come, Black Box and more. In Of Jíbaros and Hillbillies, Ricardo Nazario y Colón connects the dots between Puerto Rico and Affrilachia, creating a route that is poetic narrative, grito, reflection and canción. The writing is muscular, intimately masculine, yet able to fully embrace a female essence-in poems that reference the Great Mother or in intimate connection with a woman the poet desires. The present legacy of racism, sexism, eco-exploitation, and colonialism, of psychic damage suffered in war-all are articulated here. In a favorite piece, Nazario y Colón crafts an ode/psalm to his spirit brother, Frank X Walker, where the ties that connect are lovingly etched. Lisa Alvarado, Author of Raw Silk Suture and Sister ChicasFierce and must read it slowly.  Rane Arroyo, Poet, recent titles include: The Buried Sea: New & Selected Poems, and The Skys Weight
