Autorenporträt
Atlas of an Ancient World traces the futurist cartographies of an ancestral world. A poetry collection that embodies the threshold between Mesoamerican and Chicanx mythologies, the book rewrites the sacred relationship brown and black folks have fostered with nature and land in the Americas. This is a world haunted by diaspora, the violence and beauty of cities and borderlands.
