“Abuela’s Greatest Gift”
Edited by The Bronx Is Reading founder Saraciea J. Fennell and featuring an all-star cast of Latinx contributors, Wild Tongues Can’t Be Tamed is a groundbreaking essay collection that highlights the diverse identities and intersections that comprise the Latinx diaspora.
“A beautifully edited collection of reflections on the Latinx diaspora.” —Elle
“[An] anthology we’d gladly wait all year for. In fifteen works of poetry and essays—from tales of the supernatural to takedowns of anti-Blackness—this collection offers something for just about every kind of reader.” —Harper’s Bazaar
“Mandatory reading for anyone who has been left out by the limiting and exclusionary views of what it means to be Latino/a/x.”—Mano Magazine
“Exquisitely curated . . . With its inclusion of historically underrepresented Latinx voices, including Afro-Latinx, Caribbean, and Central American perspectives, the book uplifts and celebrates breadth and diversity within a broader community. A standout array of talent.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review
