Kali Fajardo-Anstine\u2019s magnetic story collection breathes life into her Latina characters of indigenous ancestry and the land they inhabit in the American West<\/a>. Against the remarkable backdrop of Denver, Colorado<\/a>\u2014a place that is as fierce as it is exquisite\u2014these women navigate the land the way they navigate their lives: with caution, grace, and quiet force.<\/p>\n

In \u201cSugar Babies,\u201d ancestry and heritage are hidden inside the earth but tend to rise during land disputes. \u201cAny Further West\u201d follows a sex worker and her daughter as they leave their ancestral home in southern Colorado<\/a> only to find a foreign and hostile land in California<\/a>. In \u201cTomi,\u201d a woman leaves prison and finds herself in a gentrified city that is a shadow of the one she remembers from her childhood. And in the title story, \u201cSabrina & Corina,\u201d a Denver family falls into a cycle of violence against women, coming together only through ritual.<\/p>\n

Sabrina & Corina<\/em> is a moving narrative of unrelenting feminine power and an exploration of the universal experiences of abandonment, heritage, and an eternal sense of home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
