Burn Me Back is a collection of poems that transforms grief into resilience through what Peggy Robles-Alvarado calls working-class wisdom. Rooted in verbivocovisual poetics, Latina narrative, and family lore, these poems navigate the Puerto Rican and Dominican diasporas, colonialism, patriarchy, and displacement while reclaiming memory and identity.
This collection is both intimate and unflinching, tracing the landscapes of love, survival, and sobriety with language that burns and heals in equal measure. With a voice that is unapologetically fierce and tender, Robles-Alvarado invites readers to witness the power of story as a form of resistance and remembrance, reimagining the future from the ashes of loss.
