Alma Luz Villanueva

Winner 1994 Latino Literature Prize

As a poet, Alma Luz Villanueva is consciously preoccupied with a search for a universal female community. This volume presents Villanueva's newest collection of poems and couples it with the earlier, highly praised Mother, May I?, the groundbreaking, autobiographical poem that recounts the life of one woman and transforms her story into that of Everywoman.

"Villanueva reveals a guileless yet mature sense of play with language and with life . . . " - Small Press
