"Steeped in histories and cartographies, Aileen Cassinetto's THE PINK HOUSE OF PURPLE YAM PRESERVES & OTHER POEMS transports you into another realm. Lyrical and thoughtful juxtaposition, Cassinetto's poems delve into pasts threading them together into a majestic tapestry. The pink house representing childhood memories and worldly travels. The purple jam or ube as they call it in the Philippines is a delicacy unto its own. Cassinetto's collection comprises of finely crafted poems, prose and essays, which weaves a story of migration into earthly and divine dominions." -Cristina Querrer, author of By Astrolabes & Constellations and The Art of Exporting
