Tortoise Boy Says
The debut collection from Tucson poet and renowned performer Enrique Garcia includes a total of 19 poems
written from 2011 to 2013, and tells the story of one year spent living in a desert city: cultura and reflection, struggle and beauty.
Through vibrant images and sharp language use, García shows us his work is as powerful on the page as it is on the stage.
Tortoise Boy Says takes us on a journey through the barrio, showing us the Old Pueblo as seen through young eyes swelling with pride and resistance.
