In his biting first full-length collection in English, Tijuana poet
Roberto Castillo Udiarte commiserates with Zona Norte
streetwalkers, embodies the desert lizard, and maps a life lived in
the dimness of the barroom -- as well as its incisive light. The
poems in Smooth-Talking Dog display the counterculture influence of
a wide range of influences on both sides of the border, from both
the page and the rock concert stage, as hilarious and tragic as
they are deadly serious. Celebrating Baja California's status
outside the Mexican literary mainstream, Smooth-Talking Dog proves
just how permeable the aesthetic border between the U.S. and Mexico
really is.
