Book Synopsis Our Obsidian Tongues by : David Shook
Book excerpt: David Shook's debut collection employs the city as a lens through which to explore the multiplicity of voices that inhabit it, cannibalizing a wide range of his predecessors - from the Classical Nahuatl singers of the Aztec empire to the contemporary poets of Mexico City - to scrape away the city's grunge and reveal hidden layers of sediment and story.
