This selected volume moves between dream and reality, private memory and social scars, transforming Mexican landscapes and political tension into poetry. Mythic animals, family ghosts, and the atmosphere of the city overlap, and an aging poet's gaze gives the book its quiet force.

At the border of dream and reality, it turns memory and politics into poetry and light.
