Praise for From Everywhere a Little: A Migration Anthology
From Everywhere A Little, A Migration Anthology offers passage to humanity. It tells us how we might proceed with an open heart across any impasse or desolate struggle. It is a celebration of tradition, adaptability and the endurance of the survivor. It is an embrace that is both historic and personal, a many-feathered bird crossing the limits of imagination. —Michael Rothenberg, Florida State University Libraries Poet in Residence and co-founder of 100 Thousand Poets for Change
“At home or driven from home. Doors opening or shut fast. Migrants, immigrants, refugees. People moving and being moved. The poems in From Everywhere A Little: A Migration Anthology touch on all that. They will touch and move you, too. The journey may be dangerous—’Hide money in your shoe or in your underpants’—and the goal uncertain—’You can’t tell if the taste is bitter or if you’re tasting something sweet.’ These poems urge us to pay heed to all this movement and as we do, ‘Brother, sister traveler, become an oracle.'” —Margaret Rozga, 2019-2020 Wisconsin Poet Laureate, author of Pestiferous Questions: A Life in Poems
