Description
My Father and the Astros tells the story of a girl in a family of troubled men and how their troubles affected her as she grew up in the Lower Ninth Ward of New Orleans. Maceira chronicles, in these lyric poems, a journey from childhood innocence through trauma to survival and resilience. The book reveals the deeper effects of addiction, prison, and suicide on the family members of those afflicted, a topic not often enough addressed. From difficult beginnings, Karen Maceira has managed to earn an MFA at Penn State in midlife and has had over 40 poems, essays, and reviews published in well-known journals.
