SUMMARY:Pages in the Park: Barbed Wire Between Us with Violeta Encarnación
DESCRIPTION:A breathtaking reverso poem about two girls—separated by barbed wire\, connected across generations. \nIn Barbed Wire Between Us\, a single poem holds two lives\, separated by decades yet bound by the same stretch of barbed wire. \nRead forward\, a Japanese American girl is uprooted and sent to an incarceration camp during World War II\, her world reduced to dust\, distance\, and longing. Read in reverse\, and the poem transforms: now a Latina girl stands in that same place\, detained generations later\, her story echoing across time. \nWith language as spare as it is powerful\, Mia Wenjen shapes a reverso poem that reveals how history can fold in on itself—how loss\, resilience\, and hope repeat in new forms. Violeta Encarnación’s evocative artwork deepens the emotional landscape\, illuminating both the quiet tenderness and the stark realities of life behind the wire. \nTogether\, they create a book that reads like a mirror held up to the past—and the present. \nA luminous and unflinching meditation on memory\, injustice\, and the fragile promise of belonging\, Barbed Wire Between Us lingers long after the final line—asking not only what happened\, but what we choose to see\, and what we dare to change.

SUMMARY:Works in Translation Book Club: The Bitch by Pilar Quintana
DESCRIPTION:Join us for July’s Works in Translation Book Club pick: The Bitch by Pilar Quintana! \nBook is not required to attend and discuss!\nOn a bluff overlooking Colombia’s rough Pacific coast\, at the edge of the jungle—a world where nothing is taken for granted –Damaris lives in a shack with her fisherman husband. Her dream of a child unfulfilled and the warmth of her marriage cooled\, she has reached the age “when women dry up\,” as her uncle puts it. When the opportunity arises\, she takes in a motherless puppy with eagerness and immediate affection. She does not yet know the risk she is taking in forging a bond that touches her most painful losses and her tenderest yearnings. \nIn prose as terse as the villagers Damaris lives among\, The Bitch evokes the double-edged force of the instinct to nurture and the desperate desire to be nurtured in turn.
