Thresholes

Autostraddle's Books Relevant to Your Queer and Feminist Interests in 2020 and Latin Post's Must Read Books by Latin Authors in 2020 In elegiac and fervent poetry, Lara Mimosa Montes writes across the thresholds of fracture, trauma, violence, and identity.

What is the threshold between now and then, and how can the poet be the bridge between the two?
