My Town : A Memoir of Albuquerque, New Mexico, in Poems, Prose and Photographs Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Incorporating short prose, photography, and poetry, this memoir celebrates Albuquerque, New Mexico, and recollects how the author's life and the city itself were impacted by Cold War politics, the atomic bomb, McCarthyism, racism, and misogyny.

Covering topics such as familial relationships, troubled marriage, lesbianism, and human rights activism, this collection also provides a poetic understanding of the region's history and culture over the past half century.

Politically charged, this account highlights inhumane government policies while recounting the history of this Southwestern town.
