Xiomara Batista se siente ignorada e incapaz de ocultarse en Harlem.
Desde que su cuerpo se volvió curvilíneo, aprendió a dejar que sus puños y su rudeza hablaran por ella.
Pero X tiene mucho para decir, por eso descarga su frustración en las páginas de un cuaderno y recita las palabras para sí misma como si fueran plegarias, especialmente después de verse invadida por fuertes sentimientos hacia un chico de la clase de Biología.
Ante la determinación de «mami» de forzarla a obedecer las leyes de la iglesia, X comprende que es mejor guardarse sus pensamientos. Cuando la invitan a unirse al club de poesía slam de su escuela, sabe que no podrá hacerlo y mucho menos decir sus palabras en voz alta, a no ser que logre evadir las reglas de mami.
Pero aun así no puede dejar de pensar en interpretar sus poemas frente a un público. En alzar su voz.
Porque, a pesar de que el mundo no quiera escucharla, Xiomara se niega a permanecer en silencio.
«Una historia que volverá a introducir con la fuerza de una bofetada el poder de la poesía y del amor en tu corazón.»
Laurie Halsie Anderson, autora de Speak
