Resistencia: Poems of Protest and Revolution by Julia Alvarez
5.0
Thank you, NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this eArc.
This was an excellent book of poetry and I plan to purchase a copy for my class library. I also plan to share some of the poems with my poetry class. Often I read a book of poetry and it has a few good poems but this book really has a wealth of moving and strong poems, that I think will really appeal to students and lend themselves to being discussed and used with so many topics we discuss in literature. The author notes/ mini bios were great too and I think they add to the poems especially when sharing with students.
So many moving passages in this book and I really can't wait to share it with students! I highly recommend this book.
