Opplysninger | Machine generated contents note:. - "A Narco-Acid Western told in a series of interlinked poems, Soto's striking debut collection follows the converging paths of two protagonists through El Sumidero, a fictional US/Mexico border town where an ongoing drug war is raging. The surreal verse of Soto's poems portrays a bleak political climate as it coincides with the rituals of love and loss, culture and spirituality, and the quest for a better life at all costs. Following the narrative arc of Alejandro Jodorowsky's classic cult film, El Topo, A Grave is Given Supper builds a world saturated with a mystical aura that describes the finite tensions and complicated desires of lives taking place in the borderland."--Back cover.. - Soto uses themes from the ongoing drug war taking place in a fictional U.S./ Mexico border town to weave a narco-tinged "Acid Western" told in a series of interlinked poems following the arc of Alejandro Jodorowsky's film, El Topo.
