"Mermaid Musings: Diving in the Margins undresses slowly—then devours you. In this bilingual body of verse, Marta Miranda-Straub writes like a woman unbuttoning her blouse with one hand and holding a blade in the other. These poems ache, moan, and climax on the page. They whisper secrets between thighs, trace scars with trembling fingers, and baptize readers in the salty waters of desire, grief, and revolution.
This is not poetry for the shy. Miranda-Straub offers you the scent of a lover’s sweat, the taste of strawberries in July, the burn of loss, the throb of return. With every line, she pegs patriarchy, kisses the gods, and opens her mouth—hungry for justice, dripping with pleasure.
Read this with your hands trembling. Read it with the door locked. Read it out loud."
--Dr: Ricardo Nazario y Colón
Author of "The Moor of the Bronx,” “Of Jíbaros and Hillbillies" and "The Recital".
