{"product_id":"loteria-poems-volume-5-the-sabine-series-in-literature","title":"Lotería: Poems (Volume 5) (The Sabine Series in Literature)","description":"A traditional game of chance popular in Mexico and in Mexican American culture, Lotería is poetically rendered in Esteban Rodríguez’s eighth collection, with each poem revolving around one of the fifty-four cards. Using the image presented as a catalyst for exploration and self-reflection, Rodríguez unveils the familial journey between two countries and cultures through both a surreal and narrative lens. Here, a mother unearths a severed hand in the desert. A father discovers his heart among a heap of discarded items. And at one point, the speaker—toggling between his role as witness and son—finds himself in a canoe on a river contemplating the meaning behind an authentic experience. Lyrical, insightful, and honestly engaging, Lotería sheds light on a world that doesn’t so easily reveal itself, adding to Rodríguez’s prolific and important oeuvre.\n\nThe Sabine Series in Literature\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1680033220\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1680033220.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Rodríguez, Esteban\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Pages are clean with no markings.
