Abstract
This manuscript is a memoir of prose and poetry, a narrative of finding home and identity amidst displacement in the U.S. after exile from Mexico following sexual abuse disclosure. It explores themes of identity loss and redefinition across bi-nationalism, biculturalism, race, ethnicity, interpersonal and sexual behaviors, and the juxtaposition of biblical and indigenous spiritualities.
