Produktinformationen "Portrait of the Artist as a Brown Man"
"What joys, what celebrations, and what tributes await the reader of Jose Hernandez Diaz’s Portrait of the Artist as a Brown Man."—Iliana Rocha, author of The Many Deaths of Inocencio Rodriguez This collection consists of odes to the Mexican American, first-gen experience as well as surreal prose poems with cultural references and settings native to the Los Angeles area. The collection opens with odes to everyday images and symbols of the Latinx community. In an age of elevated racism, these odes seek to celebrate Latinx culture in the face of constant scapegoating, ridicule, and surveillance. Also, this collection explores surreal prose poetry both in the suburbs and barrios of Los Angeles and the larger American landscape. "A future prizewinner," according to former US Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera, this collection seeks to celebrate the Mexican American experience while also exploring how surrealism and absurdism can lead to wondrous discoveries about the self, community, and the imagination.
