What She Saw in the Lotería Cards–a book of poems

What She Saw in the Lotería Cards, published by Bottlecap Press, is a collection that can be understood as a cartography of identity—mapping emotional, cultural, familial, and bodily terrains. The use of Lotería cards is more than decorative—it offers a mythopoetic framework that grounds intimate, raw stories in universal symbols.
