Wonderfully odd, sometimes sad, never predictable. . . . R?os continually surprises us in the way he stretches the meaning of words, turning them this way and that.I love poems that are exact, and that reflect knowledge and are zany. . . . I think R?os is a delicate poet, and a wise one. I welcome this lovely book.There is a miraculous botany in the hybrid village consciousness of Teodoro Luna. It is a marriage of unlikely flowers, say the groom Kierkegaard to the bride Bashevis Singer. But this is something altogether new and glorious, these recent poems of Alberto R?os. Boldly playful, gymnastic and surreal. Leslie Ullman,
