But the setting is also the high desert landscape that is the poet's northern New Mexico home, a land whose beauty today is as silencing and brutal as was the colonization of the region and her Anasazi descendants by Archuleta's Spanish \u003ci\u003eantipasados\u003c\/i\u003e. In \u003ci\u003eSusto, \u003c\/i\u003eloss is everywhere to be found, though this work is not merely a concerted meditation on lament. Rather, it is part unearthed family album; part unlocked diary; part ode to motherhood and her various forms; part manual on preparing for a happy death; and part primer on the ancient art of c\u003ci\u003euranderismo\u003c\/i\u003e, whereby plants and roots are prepared for treating all manner of ills a mind and body might face. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Center for Literary Publishing Colorado State","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47888582475927,"sku":"9781885635853","price":1567.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781885635853.webp?v=1781166872","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/susto-9781885635853","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
