Synopsis "Vozque Retrazos"

Vozque Retrazos collects two out-of-print collaborative chapbooks by Carlos M. Luis and dd66 into a single volume: O, Vozque Pulp (2004) and ma(I)ze Tassel Retrazos (2006). Luis’s neural, asemic imagery and dd66’s irreal, associative prose collide and collage together in a fluid exchange, excavating and moving through memory, identity, landscape and language, morphing into tactile textures in which fragmented narratives and connective imagery blur the boundaries between writing, art, and lived experience. "ma(I)ze Tassel Retrazos calls up the etymological meaning of the word 'text,' a piece of weaving; not only does the narrative fray and reknit itself, but word and image have equal weight in weaving the text as a whole. Both are changed by their proximity, which makes their separate borders seem to bleed and dissolve. The whole evokes a world larger than the protagonist's knowledge or experience, as the images close over his story, just as the earth itself decomposes and closes over the individual." —Joyelle McSweeney Carlos M. Luis (1932—2013) was born in La Habana, Cuba. He left Cuba in ‘62 and settled in New York City until ’79, when he moved to Miami and became the director of the Cuban Museum. dd66 has published a number of other books under other pseudonyms.
