Critic reviews
Praise for Sing Me A Story:
“This vibrant collection edited by Salazar (Ultraviolet), comprising 17 verse offerings by authors including David Bowles, Margarita Engle, and Ari Tison, is a “playlist of stories, about music, for music, because of music, through the music of poetry,” that celebrates Latinx traditions of connecting through song. Selections representing myriad countries, cultures, and musical genres—including rock, reggaeton, and cumbia—explore grief, bullying, gender and sexual identity, and belonging . . . Throughout, lyrical rhythm and intimate lines highlight the enduring and important role of storytelling in shaping communities and memories.” —Publishers Weekly
