Roco Cern

Diorama Roco Cern Bilingual edition

Kaleidoscopic glimpses of a hallucinatory, spiraling journey through image, language, history, and sound. As unrelentingly tactile as it is unapologetically cerebral, Cerón's book asks that we relinquish control and submit to the poet's brutal lyricism and a new kind of order. "In the second decade of the new century Rocío Cerón's work feels to this reader as both the culmination of the century before us and the start of something new and equally vibrant: a performance work at the outset that is here translated on the page as a testimony to the force of poetry when it finds its own form and emerges fresh and new and like its original with no holds barred." - Jerome Rothenberg
