Never! A Slave / Nunca! un Esclavo!

Inspired by the poet Salvador Torres-Martinez, this short work of fiction is an immigration story, in a small way, which celebrates the fortitude of an undocumented, American-born Mexican, and the son to whom he gives the love of words and the courage to live them.

While inspired, the story does not belong to Salvador. It is pure fiction.
The powerful artwork on the cover is that of Cuban-American artist Vince Herrera.
