Poetry. Women's Studies. Translation. Translated by Erín Moure. CAMOUFLAGE is a new collection of poems by the Galician poet and journalist Lupe Gómez. The poems in CAMOUFLAGE are sharp, tender elegies for a mother and for a rural village, its changing walks and ways and words. In CAMOUFLAGE, we see how one person can be "two sisters," with "two pasts." We learn about making cheeses, but also that "Death is a political project." Gómez's bold voice erases the line between the political and the domestic, the experimental and the sequential, and allows for celebratory insight. CAMOUFLAGE was published in Spain in 2017 and is Gómez's eleventh book of poetry but her first published in the United States. The poems were originally written in Galician, a language spoken by about 3 million people, primarily in Galicia, an "autonomous community" in the northwest of Spain. Translator and poet Erín Moure has translated the book into an intimate English with a vivid and tight "linguistic embrace." CAMOUFLAGE is a bilingual edition with a translator's introduction, and presents a new approach to designing work in translation.

(LARGE PRINT EDITION) WRITTEN WITH HONESTY THAT STINGS The Me Too movement is a future construction in the gender-limiting, woman-invalidating and homophobic environment of the 80s and 90s. Within these social confines, seventeen-year-old Jessica runs away from her abusive home looking for security and camaraderie. She makes the cut and joins the United States Marine Corps, an elite military organization known to take care of their own. Determined to uphold the highest standards of the Marine Corps, Jessica becomes a star performer, surmounting rigorous physical training and tactical challenges. However, her military training doesn't prepare her for the overwhelming backlash. The chivalry of her male peers turns into ugly rivalry as she outperforms them. Jessica's do-or-die Marine Corps spirit keeps her hardened. She is determined to make the Marine Corps a career despite harassment, assault and dirty politics. Yet, the challenges of her journey become even steeper; sexual and gender identity bring Jessica to crossroads. She is reacquainted with her high school friend Jade, and realizes that being an outstanding Marine ultimately means betraying herself. The Marine Corps trained Jessica to kill the enemy. The enemy is surprisingly close.
