Corazon is a love story. It is about the constant hunger for love. It is about feeding that hunger with another person and finding that sometimes it isn't enough. Salgado creates a world in which the heart can live anywhere; her fat brown body, her parents home country, a lover, a toothbrush, a mango, or a song. It is a celebration of heartache, of how it can ruin us, but most importantly how we always survive it and return to ourselves whole.

Yesika Salgado's book continue to sell to a wide-spread audience, largely cultivated by her massive social media following and web presence.

Reviews

"(Salgado) is famous around the Interwebs for providing boss ladies with sentimental poetry they can cry to between dominating in their careers and partying with their homegirls, and Corazon-filled with heart-wrenching poetry about failed love, exes who move on, as well as owning your fly and living life on your terms-doesn't disappoint." -Bustle
