Olivarez, José,

Promises of Gold = Promesas de Oro Promesas de oro José Olivarez ; traducción del inglés de David Ruano González. - First edition. - xvi, xvi, 141, 141 pages ; 22 cm

"A collection of poems addressing how every kind of love--self, brotherly, romantic, familial, cultural--is birthed, shaped, and complicated by the invisible forces of gender, capitalism, religion, migration, and so on. Written in English and combined with a Spanish translation by poet David Ruano, [the book] explores many forms of love and how 'a promise made isn't always a promise kept,' as Olivarez grapples with the contradictions of the American Dream, laying bare the ways in which 'love is complicated by forces larger than our hearts'"--
