Villain's Vernacular

By: Ornelas, Carlos

Villain's Vernacular is the language, music, culture, and characteristics that identifies and classifies a group of people as villains. This book challenges the manner in which we look at villains by presenting a glance inside the most intimate form of expression of said villain -- his poetry.

Villain's Vernacular is a book of poems and short stories based on true events of life in Los Angeles as seen through the eyes of a Mexican American underprivileged artist. Look into the multicolored stained glass window of imagination and Travel through the heartaches and triumphs as you cross into a world of words where poetry dances with darkness in a harmonious combination of tears and laughter, doubt and strength, love and misery and all other aspects of life confined in a book that challenges the reader to consider the perspective of a "villain" and determine if the artistry displayed can be deemed as heroic.
