Poetry

Saddle Road Press

Part song, part grito, part wail, part lullaby, and part hymn, Cuicacalli / House of Song is a multi-vocal exploration of time, place, and history.
Song lives within and without the poet's physical and spiritual experience of body, of desire, of art, of loss, and of grief on an individual and communal level.
Cuicacalli / House of Song sings survival, sings indigeneity, sings some part of the tattered world back together.

Cuicacalli / House Of Song

Fiction. Latino/Latina Studies. Rooted in a Chicana/Latina/indigenous geographic and cultural sensibility, the stories in flesh to bone are concerned with borders of all kinds and the potential for transformation and healing. The nine stories write and rewrite "myth" from a woman's point of view, as they tell stories of women and children whose lives are shaped by the social, political, ecological, and economic disruption and violence of the borderlands. "An original and authentic voice...with an original vision. A blend of indigenismo and folktales retold in a modern vein.... These stories at times seem to come from the clouds, from spirits of ancient ancestors, or from the oblique corners of the human consciousness.... A new and engaging duende is being born in these pages."—Alejandro Murguía "If Chagall had written, he would have painted words in the fierce brushstrokes of ire'ne lara silva's stories. If Remedios Varo had told stories, she would have wound the tendrils of her magic the way ire'ne lara silva paints her world."—Cecile Pineda
