"Levi Romero is a strange kind of wizard. He can walk up a New
Mexico arroyo and come back with a mysterious object full of
quotidian magic. Like a rusted tobacco can the grand-fathers used
to roll their smokes. And when you pry open the lid, you can hear
their laughter and gossip coming out. That's what he does in poem
after poem. I read his work and I learn again how to love this
life."--Luis Alberto Urrea
Through familiar details--leaking faucets and lowriders,
"chicharrones" and chicken coops--Levi Romero remembers "familia,
comunidad, " and "tradiciones" from his upbringing in northern New
Mexico's Embudo Valley. Alongside his training and jobs in the
building trades and the architectural profession, and now a
teacher, his writing has maintained and nurtured his connection to
the unique people and land he knows so well and that have seldom
been represented in American poetry.
