Description
"Loss and other rivers that devour charts the evolution of one son's grief as he reconciles his identity with the expectations of his late father. In this journey of becoming, Gustavo Barahona-Lâopez struggles with and is shaped by loss and its many hauntings: toxic masculinity, colonial erasures of language and heritage, and the legacy of the United States' xenophobic immigration policies"--
