Told entirely in couplets, and with remarkable lucidity, R?os balances the harmonies and disharmonies found throughout all of existence--between people and the natural world, between life and death, between spirit and body, between borders real and imagined. What does it mean for a body to house two languages? And what is an imaginary line between countries? From backyard to Sonoran desert, from mining town to river, this collection journeys the human experience, through grief and joy, tuned to the \"small buzzing of a live world.\" R?os asks us to feel the connective electric pulse between all things, to find newness, musicality, and beauty in the mundane. That the world keeps moving forward, this is miracle enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlberto R?os\u003c\/b\u003e, Arizona's inaugural poet laureate, has won acclaim for the lyrical language of his poems and short stories which reflects his Chicano heritage through both magical realism and the magic of the everyday.
