History and Editions
Tripas: Poems is Brandon Som's second book of poetry, following his award-winning debut. This collection is built out of a rich tapestry of memories and experiences, celebrating his Chicana grandmother who worked nights on the assembly line at Motorola, and his Chinese American father and grandparents who ran the family corner store. The book enacts a "cmo se dice poetics," a dialogic poem-making that inventively listens to heritage languages and transcribes family memory.
