Poet Randy Gonzales explores the history of Louisiana's nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Filipino communities and his family's story of migration and assimilation through a blend of documentary and lyrical poetry. Settling St. Malo is a history of Filipino Louisiana in verse and an ode to the struggles of our immigrant ancestors, a collection of poems whose substance, language, and rhythms are informed by oral histories, diaries, letters, and government documents--poems infused with cultural and visual landscapes and driven by a poet's desire to account for a lost heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 119\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3 x 8.9 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 19, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47352607179001,"sku":"9781959569039","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/nszjdFpa4B9781959569039.webp?v=1769811549","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/settling-st-malo-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
