ÑUÓRK!

In the Walt Whitman's and Federico Garc?a Lorca's tradition of celebratory poems to New York City, ?U?RK! is a poetry book that celebrates the city of New York and its people. In it, the city, addressed by the poet-narrator, is in itself a language construction, the clash of English and Spanish embodied in the Latin American immigrant experience, as well as the intermingling of the literary heritages of both languages, from Rub?n Dar?o and Jos? Kozer to William Carlos Williams and Susan Howe, among others.
