Publisher's Synopsis

Barbara Jane Reyes is the winner of the James Laughlin Award from the Academy of American Poets, and her work has been reviewed by the National Book Critics Circle.

These are poems, prayers, psalms, and odes for Filipino girls and women, and this book's intention is to provide a book where Filipina Americans are the center of the conversation and the primary literary audience. We will use her connections with Asian American institutions and blogs to reach this audience.

Barbara Jane Reyes is an educator in creative writing and Asian American Studies in the Bay Area, and routinely reads at universities. Her work has been widely published, including in The Brooklyn Rail, New American Writing, Poetry, Prairie Schooner (where a poem from this book appeared), and much more.
