Another anthology as second volume to "Cool Salsa" in 1994. The reader can feel the difference in the poems of this one. The diverse culture of our Latino brothers and sisters is approaced by poets speaking of the future, family, how they live, themselves and their dreams. Some young and unknown poets as well as those from "Cool Salsa," make this an excellent, cultural anthology of being bicultural that is very powerful and for TODAY!!
