Publisher's Synopsis
Poetry. LGBTQIA Studies. Women's Studies. Latinx Studies. ortiz asks us to peer into the post-apocalyptic landscape of our times. The voice of these poems is ragged and sensual, wearing the scars of a life lived in protest just by loving. It seduces us with the tantalizing declaration that it knows "all the possible ways a world ends." Despite the promise of certain death, the voice still beckons, offering us the possibility being side by side through the blast, if only to face the end together.
