Ni De Aqui, Ni De Alla — A Soul Suspended Between Two Worlds by Jorge Xolalpa

$19.99

PRE-ORDER, begins shipping June 19, 2026

Ni De Aquí, Ni De Allá A Soul Suspended Between Two Worlds is a raw, intimate memoir about identity, resilience, and the healing power of storytelling. From the dusty streets of Mexico to the uncertain promise of the American dream, this is the journey of a boy caught between two cultures, two languages, and two versions of himself - never fully belonging to either.

Brought to the United States at the age of nine, the author chronicles a life shaped by immigration, DACA status, and the invisible weight of existing in liminal space. But beyond the legal battles and cultural dissonance lies a deeper struggle - the fight to love oneself in a world that insists you don't belong.

Told with unflinching honesty and poetic vulnerability, this memoir explores the darkness of depression, the light of unexpected love, and the spark of a dream born from nothing more than an iPhone and the will to create. Through low-budget films, quiet revelations, and the fierce drive to be seen, the author reclaims his voice and, in doing so, offers hope to anyone who's ever felt like they were "ni de aquí, ni de allá" - neither from here, nor there.
