Book Launch: Hallelujah Anyhow

Reading with Lisa Lopez Smith for her debut poetry collection, Hallelujah Anyhow, followed by a Q&A moderated by paulo da costa.

About the book:

Debut collection of lovingly attentive poems about life in kinship with the land and cohabitants in little-known corners of Mexico.

Rural Mexico is practically a co-author of Hallelujah Anyhow, a debut collection that is quietly observant and raw, in which gritty reality lives side by side with delights and transcendence. López Smith pulls on the threads that bind everyone and everything together, whether it be migrants on the borderlands, the majestic wilds or her own small farm.
