by Juana Karen Peñate (Author), Carol Rose Little (Translator), Charlotte Friedman (Translator)

From Lightning's Strike is a collection of lyric poems rooted in ancestral Ch'ol Mayan culture and animated by vivid images of the natural world. Written by Juana Karen Peñate, winner of the 2020 Indigenous Literatures of the Americas Award, and translated from the Mayan Ch'ol, these multivocal poems recall the work of Mary Oliver, Joy Harjo, and Adrienne Rich. Honest, searching, and assertively female, Peñate speaks from and about the body, celebrating an intimate bond with nature while confronting the personal and the political. Carol Rose Little and Charlotte Friedman, linguist and poet, respectively, worked in partnership to bring this unique voice to English-speaking audiences.
