"Barajas’s prose embodies the generous “mutual custodianship” (179) that she has been arguing throughout this beautiful work, and the book closes with considerations of how we might move forward not only through our ownreimagined engagement with the poetic past but also how an application of this reimagining within our pedagogy may reorient our students and help manifest a better, Earth-centered future."- Carla María Thomas, Modern Philology, Vol. 120, No. 2
