Celebrating multicultural heritage, the poetry collection explores the author's Chicana grandmother's labor at Motorola and his Chinese American family's corner store. Through a dialogic approach, the poems listen to heritage languages and family memories, creating a dialogue between cultures. Som's work highlights the intersections of history, migration, and labor, revealing the often-overlooked narratives of transnational communities. His lyricism critiques global capitalism while envisioning a more connected and empathetic world.
