Poetry. Includes CD with music by Carlos Ochoa.

Poetry. Includes CD with music by Carlos Ochoa. "In UNRAVELING THE BED, Mia Leonin invents a remarkably specific and vertiginous world of veils and magic, blood and azul thinning to translucent, a frightening and tender portrait of a woman who is sometimes barely breathing and, at other times, rising fully into her opaque human self. What is most remarkable to me in these poems is Leonin's craft--language that is mouth-wateringly rich, whether in line-breaks or prose--and the way the poems seem to paint themselves before the eyes. I am grateful for this feast of words and for the enormous spirit behind them, and for the complex stories that changed me as I read. To quote Rukeyser... there is an exchange here in which our lives are met, and created. Mia Leonin offers us a work that raises and transforms energy from a deep, wise, and holy place"-- Maureen Seaton. The CD that accompanies UNRAVELING THE BED was composed and produced by Carlos Ochoa. Integrating site-specific recordings, electronic beats and instrumental music with readings of the poems, Ochoa has created a free style musical interpretation of the poetry. Live instruments performed on the CD are keyboards, guitar, flute, and the Andean moseno.
