Description

"Terse, decidedly conversational haiku-like poetry collection by an indigenous Guatemalan, this book will surprise readers who may expect it to provide direct political commentary. Ak'bal's concerns are elsewhere, and if it is true that nature is present in the book's four subdivisions, especially in the onomatopoeic use of language, the poet focuses more on dangerously sentimental (for poetry) aspects of everyday life"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
