Li Yun AlvaradoWords or WaterChapbook2016Finishing Line Presshttps://bookshop.org/a/300/9781944899974"Li Yun Alvarado's Words or Water is an affective map of the Nuyorican archipelago, as oceanic as it is embodied. In vivid and uncompromising poems—about love and family, about the politics of tweezing and the intricacies of Puerto Rican rum, about the artist Keith Haring's lover Juanito Xtravaganza and the imperialism of Old Navy t-shirts—Alvarado traces the “Atlantic currents” of diaspora while honoring quotidian practices of survival and struggle." -- Urayoán Noel author of Buzzing Hemisphere/Rumor Hemisférico and In Visible Movement: Nuyorican Poetry from the Sixties to Slam

Born to a Japanese American father and German-Irish mother in rural Oregon, Nori's family becomes increasingly diverse when they adopt a six-year-old boy from Korea.

The joys and challenges of growing up invite the reader to recall the world through eyes like mine.

Jacquelyn StolosEdendaleNovelFall 2020!Creature Publishinghttps://creaturehorror.com/books/edendaleSorry, I'm a little confused about you're looking for here. Would the jacket copy work? Here is is:
In northeast Los Angeles, wildfires rage and coyotes stalk the neighborhood streets. The wind blows heavy with smoke and inside a rented bungalow on hilly Lemoyne Street, the air grows heavy with something else.
Ropey closes his checking account and transfers his net worth to his sock drawer. Megan sharpens pencils and chops produce to obsession. Lyle tightens his grip on his girlfriend Egypt, whose growing dependence makes her question everything, especially Lyle. And Captain America, the cat of the house, finds his orange coat giving way to a nest of bleeding sores. As the fires burn ever closer, will the four friends wake up to their false paradise? Jacquelyn Stolos’ eco-horror debut explores the ways rape culture can permeate intimate relationships, making us question our agency in our own lives and the world at large.
If I'm off, shoot me an email at jacstolos@gmail.com and I'll gladly type of something else :)

The women in the linked short story collection ONCE REMOVED carry the burdens imposed in the name of intimacy—the secrets kept, the lies told, the disputes initiated—as well as the joy that can still manage to triumph. Some of these women possess the fierce natures and long, vengeful memories of expert grudge holders. Others avoid conflict at every turn, or so they tell themselves. For all of them, grief lies at the core of love.

Donna Spruijt-MetzSlippery SurfacesChapbook2019Finishing Line Presshttps://bookshop.org/books/slippery-surfaces/9781635348903"With a clarity that is often unnervingly wry, Donna Spruijt-Metz examines a personal history that gets more complex as each poem unfolds, speaking to the incongruities that shadow a life.  What our parents tell us, what we tell each other, and what we know about ourselves and each other—Slippery Surfaces deftly brings narrative situation and lyric song into coalescence.  Spruijt-Metz’s ultimate subject is memory itself, which she movingly describes in its various guises—as lens, as veil, as mirror."
