A name for the people of Honduras,Catrachosis a term of solidarity and resilience. In these unflinching, riveting poems, Roy G. Guzmn reaches across bordersbetween life and death and between countriesinvoking the voices of the lost. Part immigration narrative, part elegy, and part queer coming-of-age story,Catrachosfinds its own religion in fantastic figures such as the X-Men, pop singers, and the Queerodactyl, which is imagined in a series of poems as a dinosaur sashaying in the shadow of an oncoming comet, insistent on surviving extinction. With exceptional energy, humor, and inventiveness, Guzmns debut is a devastating display of lyrical and moral complexityan introduction to an immediately captivating, urgently needed voice.
