Reflections in a Smoking Mirror

By Paul Pines

Poetry. "Infused with an eerily adept understanding of Latin American history and culture dating from the 15th century to modern times, their collective duende, REFLECTIONS IN A SMOKING MIRROR will come to stand as a monumental work and as a companion piece to the epic Gabriel Garc?a M?rquez novel One Hundred Years of Solitude. This collection of poems takes on the true power of myth"Wayne Atherton. "REFLECTIONS IN A SMOKING MIRROR tells the story of the fall of an ancient, vibrant civilization to Spain's conquistadors under Cortez. Pines's language is intelligent and refreshing, his ideas provocative, his images striking, and his narrativehowever tragicdramatically thrilling. This book is a smoking mirror"Maurice Kenny.
