Three extraordinary poets... Carmen Tafolla --- a gossamer, almost fragile, delicacy in her love lyrics; a bitter nostalgia of the barrio, ultimately, a tough, uncompromising hope. Reyes Cárdenas -- poetry resplendent with primordial images; archetypes that reestablish the selfhood of Chicanos. Cecilio García-Camarillo-- exploring the range of language; experimenting with the processes of the mind, the structures of poetry ... Chicano poetry began with giant, often intemperate, leaps onto the back of tradition. With Get Your Tortillas Together, Tafolla, Cárdenas and García-Camarrillo take a measured, thoughtful and significant step onto the living and continuing tradition of Chicano literature.
