More Musings of a Barrio Sack Boy

Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. L. Luis Lopez's fourth collection of poems returns to the barrio in Albuquerque where the author grew up in the 1940's and 1950's. Each poem is a glimpse into the neighborhood characters who came and went from the small supermarket where he worked as a 'sack boy'. With great simplicity the poems move from remembered description into small but vital illuminations of the important things in life.
