Secrets of God's Reign

Algunos Secretos del Reino

by Julia Esquivel

"In this, Julia Esquivel’s latest collection of poetry, insights bubble up like a clear mountain spring, emerging from decades of unfathomable suffering, darkness and chaos, to flow over a dry and thirsty land. We, her readers, may here find inspiration, nourishment and challenge." —Bernice Kita, MM

Book coverHarvest of Cain

by Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer

"Harvest of Cain is fiction and at the same time remarkably true to life. Deeply rooted in the reality of El Salvador before the civil war of the 1980s. A provocative yet tender portrayal of one of the most moving times in the history of this Central American country." - Mario Bencastro, author of A Shot in the Cathedral

"Harvest of Cain is a gripping plot of intrigue, deceit and martyrdom. It is a narrative which reveals the humanity of peasants, priests, soldiers and agents who were expendable but who changed history; and it is a compelling read which shows us the futility and utter glory of those who resist the goliaths of power. Nelson-Pallmeyer has the imagination and the research: he opens the closed off doors of the U.S. Embassy, the CIA, the Salvadoran generals and lets us see both the manity and the mind-sets of the "intellectual authors." - Renny Golden, author of Hour of the Furnaces.

Threatened with Resurrection

Prayers and Poems from an Exiled Guatemalan

By Julia Esquivel

"The poetry of Julia Esquivel brings the tears, the spilled blood, the agony of Guatemala into our experience.  But more than pain and death, her message is one of life and hope.

The Hour of the Furnaces

Poems by Renny Golden

"These poems give voice to those who have been taken from us. We can use these recreated voices to continue the struggle that refused to end with their physical annihilation." - Margaret Randall

"Just as a theology of liberation exists, so too exists a poetry of liberation, inspired by that theology, which has recently emerged in the two Americas. And one of the best representatives of this poetry is Renny Golden." - Ernesto Cardenal, poet and former Nicaraguan Minister of Culture
