Résumé
Winner of The Publishing Triangle's 2026 Audre Lorde Award for Lesbian PoetryJust in time for Hispanic Heritage Month comes another brilliant bilingual poetry collection by Achy Obejas-a meditation on being a queer mom to 2 sonsThese 44 prose poems, artful yet accessible, presented in both Spanish and English versions, immerse us in the boy kingdom that Achy Obejas inhabits with her two sons. They move from the wild and divine spirit of boyhood to the everyday rhythms of family life-mac'n'cheese, television, sick days home from school.
Achy carries multiple identities: she is Cuban American, lesbian, and Jewish. She captures the universality of motherhood while also illuminating the uniqueness of her queer, multilingual, multicultural family: the way her elder son looks as her as if she's "dancing with the dead" when she speaks Spanish; the way her boys prefer mac'n'cheese to tostones; the day her elder son comes home from school disquieted, then finally spills it: "A couple of boys yelled at him: Your moms are queer!"The collection is divided into four parts.
The first part focuses primarily on Achy's sons, and subsequent parts branch out into stories of her parents, her roots in Cuba, and her divorce.
