{"product_id":"copy-9781950268566","title":"Copy","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Without the copying process,\" the poet Dolores Dorantes has said, \"there would be no life, no reality.\" Through deconstructed dictionary entries and powerfully syncopated, recursive texts, COPY is a prose poem sequence that insinuates an experience of violent removal: a person's disappearance from a country, from normal life, and forcible reintegration into a new social and existential configuration. This displaced, dispossessed voice explores what it means to be extracted, subtracted, abstracted out of being--and returned into it. Meditative, urgent, and alive, COPY asserts itself as an invocation, both intensely personal and insistently communal, of the right to refuge, and it enacts a powerful homage to the human capacity for creation and metamorphosis. In this way, this book points to the wound of being extricated, serving as both a suture and a salve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePoetry.
