Nerve Curriculum

By Manuel López

"In this remarkable book, lyric fabulist Manuel Paul L?pez embeds parallel worlds that unite dreamtime and memory's 'syllabus of smoke.' Episodes relate the perils of youth and the absurdity of a 'state-sanctioned self' amid the social fevers here and now, along with the exquisitely berserk stagecraft needed to mount a present-day rebellion of the senses ... Nerve Curriculum is the thrilling confirmation of a unique ?lan that can fuel the Latinx imagination. L?pez accommodates us with ample poetic vitality and a surrealist regard for releasing personhood from having to 'live perpetually on the verge of living.'"--Roberto Tejada
