Mexico Lives in Me: A Collection of Poems About Mexican Culture, Identity, Heritage, Latino, Diaspora, and Missing Home

Mexico Lives in Me is a heartfelt collection of poems about Mexican identity, culture, heritage, family, diaspora, and the meaning of home. These poems are for those who carry Mexico with them wherever they go. For those who miss the warmth of family gatherings, the sound of Spanish spoken across the house, familiar food, music, traditions, crowded tables, old neighborhoods, and the feeling of being surrounded by people who understand where you come from. Through poems about Mexican family, cultural traditions, immigration, growing up between two worlds, homesickness, belonging, pride, love, grandparents, childhood memories, language, and life in the Mexican diaspora, this collection explores what it means to remain connected to your roots even when home is far away. Mexico Lives in Me is written for Mexicans at home and abroad, Mexican Americans, children of immigrants, members of the Mexican diaspora, and anyone who understands what it means to love a place deeply. For anyone who has ever looked back and thought: My heart still belongs to Mexico.
