Longform Podcast #546: Javier Zamora

Javier Zamora is the author of Unaccompanied, a poetry collection, and Solito, a memoir.

“There was something that I felt eating away at me, which made me a very angry and volatile teenager. And I think I was an angry teenager because I had this trauma that nobody around me could talk about, and that I didn’t have the right therapist to help me unpack. So the cheapest thing that I had was poetry.”
