<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>These poems are for the ones who need a cleansing, a stripping, a removal, un despojo of the vibrations holding them back from living in their true light.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>What Tatiana has done with Despojo is pure delight!<br /> She offers home, love, peace and healing. Her heritage<br /> woven into each line, sharing her roots and the wisdom<br /> from her ancestors. With each poem, she tells a story</p><p>with a quiet yet bold flare that only she possesses. Mas-<br /> terfully written and a complete gem is this masterpiece!</p><p>--C.

A refreshing exploration of</p><p>both wanting to belong and tracing back all that makes<br /> us feel seen. This collection reminds us that it is in the<br /> shedding of skin that we learn to mend.<br /> --Melania-Luisa Marte, Poet & Author of Mela</p><p>Despojo is a testament to so many things: the pain and<br /> healing in the aftermath of sexual violence, the lineages<br /> Tatiana honors and writes within, the fact that love<br /> is a verb. The poems in Despojo carry an impossible<br /> amount of compassion for their subjects. I learn from<br /> Tatiana Figueroa Ramirez the act of staying put and<br /> just looking; she is a poet deeply invested in witnessing</p><p>her family and ancestry, in writing with an uncom-<br /> promising eye towards balancing the truth and the</p><p>turmoil. She never turns away. I am so lulled by her<br /> language, which is so skillful it has a spine. Flowers<br /> dot the pages, the air becomes thinner and sweet with<br /> molasses. Do yourself a favour and learn what it really<br /> means to trace lineage, to write with strength towards<br /> people who have hurt you, to stand and carry an entire<br /> history on your shoulders.<br /> --Nancy Huang, Author of Favorite Daughter</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Praise for Despojo<br /> What Tatiana has done with Despojo is pure delight!<br /> She offers home, love, peace and healing.
