As new condition red linen boards with silver spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Alberto Rios; Author Dedication; Acknowledgments and About the Author. "Rios's poems follow a path of wonder and gently move us to emotional truth that grab our breath and link our inner and outer landscapes. His alchemy works a transformation in the inner vision, turning us toward the deeper mystery of life itself." - American Book Review. "On the heels of his National Book Award nomination for poetry, Alberto Rios's newest collection is filled with magic, marvel, and emotional truth. Set within a community along the border between the U.S. and Mexico, his poems trace the lives and loves of an elderly couple, Clemente and Ventura, through their childhoods, their courtship and into marriage, maturity, old age and death. Rios's narratives are both surreal and hyper-real, and from within the community of these two lives he creates a striking geography unlike any other in American poetry. And like the best of storytellers he charms his readers, making us care deeply for -- even love -- his characters." - from the inner front jacket flap. Curtis, Philip C. (cover art) (illustrator).…
