Danzirly: A Reading with Gloria Muñoz
Presented by the American Academy of Poets and the University of Arizona Press, Gloria Muñoz reads from her new poetry collection, Danzirly.
Winner of the Ambroggio Prize from the Academy of American Poets, this collection of poems is an unforgettable reckoning of the grief and beauty that pulses through twenty-first-century America. Danzirly is a striking bilingual poetry collection that fiercely examines the nuances of the American Dream for Latinx people in the United States. With a backdrop of stringent immigration policies, the #MeToo movement, and the increasingly tangible threat of climate change, this collection considers multigenerational Latinx identities in a rapidly changing country and world. Through the author’s Colombian American lens, the poems explore the intersections of culture, gender, history, and intergenerational grief.
