An updated edition combining two classic works of Chicana and queer
literature, with a new introduction by renowned writer and
luminary, CherrÃe Moraga. In celebration of the 40th anniversary
of its original publication, this updated edition of Loving in the
War Years combines Moraga’s classic memoir with The Last
Generation: Poetry and Prose, resulting in a challenging,
inspiring, and insightful touchstone for artists and
activists—and for anyone striving to foster care and community.
CherrÃe Moraga’s powerful memoir remains as urgent as ever. She
explores the intersections of her Chicana and lesbian identities,
moving gracefully between poetry and prose, Spanish and English,
personal narratives and political theory. Moraga recounts
navigating the world largely as an outsider, circling the
interconnected societies around her from a distant yet observant
perspective. Ultimately, however, her writing serves as a bridge
between her cultures, languages, family, and herself, enabling her
to look inward to forge connections from otherwise inaccessible
parts of her interior world, to show how deep self-awareness and
compassionate engagement with one’s surroundings are key to
building global solidarity among people and political movements.
