Book Synopsis

An Immigrant's Guide to Navigating Borders & Bodies of Water is a study of movement, migration, and the shifting landscapes of identity. Rooted in common rites and daily ritual, these poems trace what we carry and what we leave behind in the ongoing work of negotiating borders within ourselves and across the world.
