Biographie de Javier Zamora
Javier Zamora was born in El Salvador in 1990. His father fled the country when Javier was one, and his mother when he was about to turn five ; both his parents' migrations were caused by the U.S.-funded Salvadoran Civil War. When Javier was nine he migrated through Guatemala, Mexico, and the Sonoran Desert. His debut poetry collection, Unaccompanied, explores the impact of the war and immigration on his family.
Javier Zamora has been a Stegner Fellow at Stanford and a Radcliffe Fellow at Harvard and holds fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Poetry Foundation.
