I enjoyed this collection, but as far as the Breakbeat Poets series goes, this volume was more challenging for me to get through. As I'm not a Spanish speaking individual I wasn't prepared for how much spanish would be included in the poems. So just a heads up to be prepared to really slow down and take your time with this poems, if it's not a language you speak fluently.

There is some good stuff in here, but you have to read through a lot of other to find it. Is it worth it? Maybe if you are particularly drawn to the themes, but otherwise probably not. I would have preferred a slimmed down version with just the good bits, but the good bits might be subjective, but not all the bad were subjectively bad - they could have objectively culled numerous poems out.

I enjoyed some poems more than others but there were so many fantastic poets featured in this anthology.
