Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Pan de Alma is a reclamation of identity and heritage. In this award-winning chapbook, Colombian-American Marcella Prokop navigates the streets of Bogotá, Cartagena and other cities, exploring the complexities of cultural and personal identity. In 'Hunger,' she confronts privilege by examining desire and dependence (Moonlight sugars our pale skin/ And I know again, in new ways/ the freedom and fullness/ of my young, foreign body'). In 'Omayra's Eyes,' she views the vastness of the universe through the eyes of a dying child ('Look into those eyes/and know what it is to endure/as if the soul were a penny/searching the depths for a peaceful bottom').
