By Claudia Castro Luna

This artist-book and epic poem by Claudia Castro Luna was created during a residency at Partners in Print. The stunning accordion-style volume brings together rich visual work and a sweeping poetic narrative.

A companion to her earlier book One River, a Thousand Voices, it extends her commitment to bringing poetry, art, and the natural world into dialogue.
