At once heartbreaking and hilarious, Mi'ja chronicles the first nineteen ears of the life of poet laureate, Gómez-a life not meant for a child, nor is this book. It is fairytales and bestiaries in ceiling cracks; mythologies on the fire escape; realities of how the smallest acts of kindness can conquer despair. This book will reward you with revelations and celebrations of your own life. Magdalena Gómez was born and raised in the Bronx, New York. She studied English and Theater at Lehman College, and Spanish Literature at the University of Sevilla, Spain. The Poet Laureate of Springfield, Mass. from 2019 to 2022, she received an Academy of American Poets Fellowship in 2021. #booksigningevent #booksigning #poetlaureate #magdalenagomez #norwalkconnecticut #connecticut (at Norwalk, Connecticut) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjRf2qNuvMu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
