Poetry. "Red entangles us in its net of anhelo. Here our Califas-born, Chicano patriot poet stubbornly resists 'bear flags and grizzly extinction.' He invites us to 'take life as a gift' (in which) the silent uncharted geography from word to letter is mapped onto the sunset red leaves of the poem. It is marked in the imagined face of a woman reading on a train . . . It is the 'space between beats' beautifully lyricized, and we can hear it in all its glorious quiet" - Cherrie Moraga, author of The Last Generation.
