In Diego Baez's debut collection, Yaguarete White, English, Spanish, and Guarano encounter each other through the elusive yet potent figure of the jaguar. This is a lyrical exploration of Paraguayan American identity and what it means to see through a colored whiteness in all of its tangled contradictions.

Yaguareté White is a lyrical exploration of Paraguayan whiteness, or white Latinidad, and what it means to see through a colored whiteness, with all of its tangled contradictions. Diego Báez's poems reconcile the incomplete, contradictory, and inconsistent experiences that reside between languages, nations, and generations.
