I don’t take a single gesture of positivity that lifts up this book for granted. I’m still trying to wrap my head around it (particularly seeing who was named the winner in the category below mine)—Hijito is the winner of the 2020 International Book Award for Poetry!!!
In the years I spent writing and revising this book, I never imagined something like this.
The full Award Announcement can be found HERE.
Forever grateful to everyone at Platypus Press for believing in this book.
