A MODERN BOOK CLUB FOR THE MODERN READER
AMERIE’S NEW SELECTION •May 2024
HAVE YOU BEEN LONG ENOUGH AT TABLE by Leslie Sainz In this gorgeous, tense, and at times morbid, poetry collection, Leslie Sainz dissects the Cuban American experience from a multitude of angles: the push-pull between the United States and the Republic of Cuba; the relationships that, like tides, pull us in and push us away; food as metaphor for identity and relationships. Underlying the quiet beauty of the narrator’s observations: the low hum of unease. The poems within the pages of Have You Been Long Enough at Table have enough layers to keep a reader busy for days, long after putting down the book.
