Dream of Xibalba, Stephanie Adams-Santos's incantatory long poem, draws the reader into a dreamworld where the barrier between life and death grows porous, populated by ancestors and spirits. The influence of such poets as Cecilia Vicu a, Federico Garc a Lorca, and Yvan Goll is evident here, yet Adams-Santos's voice and vision are entirely her own. Dream of Xibalba is a unique, epic work of cultural and spiritual significance.
