Description
Black Box Named Like To Me Challenges The Limits Of Syntax And Image To Hold The Full Scope Of The Imaginary In Its Grasp, Touching On Questions Of Motherhood, The Future, Memory, And The Acquisition Of Language. The Page Is A Zone For Play, Here, Both In The Translation And The Original Spanish; Words And Ideas Undergo Radical Transformation To Best Serve The Purpose Of The Poems, Shapeshifting At Will. Vocal Momentum Drives These Poems Onward And Outward With A Force That Is Just As Funny As It Is Poignant. It Is Garza Islas's First Book, And The First To Be Translated Into English-- Provided By Publisher.
