description: The poetry of Emmy Perez celebrates and grieves borders, the division between poverty and sustenance. Perez's precise and soulful language erases boundaries...Two languages are barely enough to name her world--Mary Jane Nealon. "In SOLSTICE Emmy Perez looks deeply at shards of the physical world, its sensual body, its cycles...Perez follows the personal and cultural connections and beckons us to take part in her discoveries"--Molly Bendall. Emmy Perez received an MFA from Columbia University. Her work has appeared in Prairie Schooner, New York Quarterly, and Crab Orchard Review.
