Print There’s no way Gustavo Hernandez could have avoided writing about geography. A sense of place factored into his life from the start. “You’re always so aware of the space that you’re inhabiting when you move from one place to another,” Hernandez said. He immigrated from Jalisco, Mexico to Santa Ana with his parents in the 1980s. His dad was a landscaper, who had weed abatement contracts with Orange County. It made sense to write about where he was born and raised. It also made sense to collage a photo of his dad at work on the cover art of his first full-length poetry collection “Flower Grand First” (Moon Tide Press, $15).
