    About this ebook

    Cesar A. Cruz's belief that "Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable." is aptly demonstrated in For Them I Cried.

    This distinctive work is an emotionally stirring creation of poetry and prose. It is a must-read for anyone who has experienced or has walked alongside someone else who has experienced great hurt, grief, anger, oppression, frustration, empathy, or great joy. Before opening the book, readers between the ages of 13 to 103 should brace themselves for a journey of cathartic impact!
