In A Tejana in Tenochtitlan, Yolanda Chávez Leyva heeds the urging of her grandmothers to “Carry our stories carefully/ Wrap them in soft red cloth/ And place them against your heart.” In this collection of simple yet poignant poetry, she recovers the stories, the secrets, and the memories of her people across time and space as they celebrate survival, mourn their losses, and remember their humanity.
