As Los Mil Jesuses make their move to fill a power vacuum in Norte de Santander, aided and abetted by the Colombian military for its own reasons, the Americans are made pawns of a game they don't even begin to understand.

9) Obit: Poems
Author

Description
"After her mother died, poet Victoria Chang refused to write elegies. Rather, she distilled her grief during a feverish two weeks by writing scores of poetic obituaries for all she lost in the world. In Obit, Chang writes of "the way memory gets up after someone has died and starts walking." These poems reinvent the form of newspaper obituary to both name what has died ("civility," "language," "the future," "Mother's blue dress") and the cultural...

This coming-of-age story wrestles with an essential question for our time: what telling of a survivor's story will finally force a remedy?...

Part family drama, part social essay, part picaresque novel, at its heart it is the story of a father, a son, and the country they both call home.
