Join us Thursday, May 1st at 7 PM for the release of The Restless of Bound Wrists by
Jorge Antonio Renaud

Winner of the Plancha Press Chapbook Prize

Sponsored by Red Salmon Arts and Infrarrealista Review

“The poems in Jorge Renaud’s exceptional collection are direct, elegant, and plain-spoken. They rally us with his discerning poet’s pen against the cruelty of massive incarceration. Twenty-seven years of imprisonment opened his poet’s ear and eye to depict loss, love, and liberation unapologetically. Renaud’s poems should be read time and again.”

–Teresa Palomo Acosta, author of Las Tejanas: 300 Years of History

“The Restlessness of Bound Wrists is an urgent testimony of compassion and transformation from a poet who knows that to tell the truth…Renaud’s poetic voice never falters, never hesitates, ringing loud and clear…My heart broke, over and over again…”
