| Summary: | Brother Sleep is a collection of grievances through which a speaker mourns the loss of a brother, grandfather, and a sense of self as they navigate a landscape of desire marred by violence against queer and Mexican people. Set in the border cities of El Paso, Texas and Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, these poems navigate the liminal space between language and silence. Evocative, sorrowful poetry attempts to negotiate grief and identity through a series of dreams, memories and songs. |
