Breaking Bread with the Darkness
Book 1: The Esai Poems

The Esai Poems are some of Baca's strongest poetic work. Already father of two grown sons, Baca explores the implications of beginning another family with another woman. Subsequent volumes will include explorations of self and family with Essays and Stories, The Lucia Poems (to his young daugher), and to his son, Tones and Gabe Poems and Essays.
