Just as decansos are silent reminders of unexpected deaths, so the poems in Descansos employ magical thinking as a process of remembrance: charged with an awareness of what it means to not let go. The collection forms a surreal invitation for the reader to seek the crosses that landscape their own inner consciousness, and encourages not only the chanting of memories but the singing of loved ones back to life.
