Title: In Search of Mariachis
Description: David Shumate, author of *High Water Mark* and *Floating Bridge* (both University of Pittsburgh Press), again navigates between margins of culture and language in his collection *In Search of Mariachis*. Shumate is a poet who posesses the capacity for both quiet reflection and dauntless investigation. Shumate is a poet capable of both quiet introspection and incisive acuity. This is a book of restlessness certainly, though it is also a work of philosophy, history, and culture.
Subjects: poetry, surrealism
