HERENCIAS es una colección de poesía en español que se enfoca en temas de amor, melancolía, historia, política y familia.El autor Jean-Pierre Rueda ilustra recuerdos de niñez en su natal Costa Rica, paisajes de su vida inmigrante en California, la pasión al covertirse en padre y las herencias de personajes y eventos históricos que inspiraron generaciones de Latinx en Estados Unidos.Jean-Pierre Rueda busca con sus versos románticos hacerle un homenaje a la belleza y tristeza de nacer y crecer en otro país, los valores familiares que se vuelven puntos cardinales en la travesía de los años y la importancia de contar la historia para iluminar la valentía ante lo incierto.
Jean-Pierre Rueda es un poeta y escritor nacido en San José, Costa Rica en 1985.Creció escuchando las leyendas de su tío aventurero quien viajaba cada diciembre desde la tierra de Mickey Mouse y George Bush al verano navideño en Costa Rica; siempre bautizado por la risa de su familia, la bachata rosa de Juan Luis Guerra y los abrazos que tardaban meses en ser.Desde niño, soñó con vivir en California y ser un reportero pintando discursos en el congreso estadounidense. Se imaginaba cumpliendo el sueño americano exactamente como su tío en la ciudad de Los Ángeles.Pero pronto se dio cuenta, al dejar Costa Rica cuando tenía 15 años, que Estados Unidos era muy distinto al país que dibujó de niño. Su voz era brusca, enardecida y violenta. La soledad de su nueva identidad de inmigrante, la desilusión del corazón al verle los ojos cerrados a la justicia en ese país soñado y la tristeza de las historias que se formaban a su alrededor; despertaron en Jean-Pierre Rueda un gran interés por la política, la poesía y el aporte invaluable de la comunidad Latinx en los Estados Unidos.Jean-Pierre Rueda le escribe poesía a esos aventureros que se encuentran persiguiendo los sueños americanos de alguien más en Estados Unidos, versos para celebrar la valentía de vivir tan lejos de lo conocido y el brillo de ser parte del alma Latinoamericana. Jean-Pierre espera crear espacios de diálogo con sus poemas de amor, historia, política y herencia. Jean-Pierre Rueda fue publicado en BOOK BY AUTHORS: NORTH LONG BEACH ANTHOLOGY en el 2009 y publicó su primer libro HER EYES WERE THE MOON AND I WAS THE WAVES en el 2020.Actualmente, Jean-Pierre Rueda trabaja para un banco en las mañanas y escribiendo poesía para sus futuros proyectos literarios con Alegría Publishing.Jean-Pierre Rueda vive en Compton, California con su esposa y sus dos niños.
