| book description |

Durante más de cincuenta años, Julia de Burgos ha evocado sentimientos de identidad y unión entre puertorriqueños y latinxs en Estados Unidos. Vanessa Pérez-Rosario va más allá del enfoque trágico de otras biografías de Burgos para examinar la vida de la artista considerando el trasfondo de la cultura puertorriqueña y la compleja historia de la isla y la diáspora. Enfocándose en Burgos como escritora y activista, Pérez-Rosario profundiza en su desarrollo artístico, su experiencia como migrante, sus luchas contra el colonialismo y la injusticia social y sus contribuciones a la cultura literaria y visual latinoamericanas. Al mismo tiempo, desentraña las dinámicas culturales y políticas que operan en las revisiones y reinvenciones de Burgos que escritores y artistas latinxs contemporáneos en Nueva York llevan a cabo para imaginar nuevas posibilidades para sí mismos y sus comunidades. Disponible por primera vez en español, Julia de Burgos cuenta la destacada historia de la poeta y activista puertorriqueña.
