Peregrina / Pilgrim. Poems - Ana María Fores Tamayo

Moving between English and Spanish, Peregrina / Pilgrim creates a resonant space where meaning fractures and reforms, where memory and witness converge. The collection refuses to look away-from refugee journeys, courtrooms, and deportation orders-while also carrying moments of joy, mercy, and unyielding hope. Here poetry and images cross the borderlands of language, lineage, and survival with fierce lyric intensity. First-person testimonies emerge from migrants, asylum seekers, and the poet's own life in language that holds the weight of exile, the pulse of endurance, and the human heart's insistence on belonging.
