About the Book

Inside these pages the reader will encounter magical moments, like gems, epiphanies-the mystical beauty found in nature, testimonies to endurance and a celebration of survival and the survivor. There is turbulence and struggle yes, but also the joy of finding faith and perserverance. I speak of introspection, aging and provide a look at human relationships in all of their intensity and splendor. There are entire chapters devoted to the myriad dimensions of society and politics- and there is much history. (My parents' during the Hungarian Revolution and current border issues.) I write poetry which speaks as an outcry against injustice and corruption, I write of the dark netherworld of America's criminal justice system and of mental illness, also the plight of war veteran's and the devastation of miscarriage... My "Mexico Poems" often deal with violence and disturbing subject matter. Yet I speak of these in condemnation of such violence and as a first-hand account. (I lived in Ciudad Juarez from 2009-2015- the worst years of the narco wars- when the city was the murder capital of the world.) In conclusion, I hope that my words not only startle but that they lend courage and hope- that they motivate the reader to ponder deeply about what it is to live in a rapidly changing world, a world full of problems but also tremendous good- a world where each of us can strive in our own way, to make a difference and help alleviate suffering. As a poet, this is my passion- my personal goal.
About the Author: I was born in 1963 in Urbana, Illinois, the daughter of Hungarian refugees. My heritage and parents' historical background feautures centrally in my writing. Upon graduation from high school, I served a brief stint in the United States Marine Corps and was honorably discharged. Work, for me has been a "colorful" hodge-podge of such variety as: newspaper columnist, veterinary assistant, receptionist, teacher's aide and tutor (ABE, Spanish and ESL) and deli supervisor. (to name a few.) My education too, has been a mosaic. I graduated from Southern Career Institute (Boca Raton, Florida, 1994) in Paralegal Studies and from Harcourt Direct (Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1999) as a veterinary assistant. I have also attended Westwood College in Denver, Colorado where I was certified in phlebotomy and studied in the Medical Assistant AOS program. Prior to Daughter of Diasporas I have published 2 chapbooks with "Sentences" (New Haven, Connecticut, 1988) and Runner's Blues. (Guyasuta Press, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 1990) I have also published 2 full-length books, Freedom's Quest (Windsor Associates, San Diego, California, 1992) and From Inside the Whirlwind- A Poetic Memoir (El Paso Book Publishers,2010) Currently, I am a poet/community activist and advocate for the rights of the homeless, disabled, immigrants and refugees and veterans. I live in El Paso, Texas with my husband and Snowshoe cat, Caramela.
