Inclusive Overview

Vintage Cisneros is a wonderful introduction to a complex and insightful author. Themes of personal and cultural identity and self-awareness are prominent and resplendent in their treatments. I only wish that more of her poetry were included. Overall, though, a beautiful compilation!
