¿Cómo Hacer Preguntas? or How To Make Questions: 69 Instructional Poems in English ¿explores the spaces from which questions arise -- the memories, musings, and metaphysics we use to seek out meaning in life. Riffing on the literal translation of the Spanish phrase "hacer pregunatas," these sixty-nine (or are there?) poems focus on the making of questions, rather than the answering of them. They interrogate everything from the mundane ("How To Pass The Time" "How To Write A Cover Letter"), to the sublime ("How To Transform Base Matter Into Gold" "How To Find God"), to the surreal ("How To Enter The Fifth Dimension" "How To Keep A Secret You Don't Know"). This collection is sure to disappoint anyone wanting answers or guidance. But for anyone willing to be involved in the creation, the making, of life's important questions, this is the book for you.
