Pat Mora's Encantado rolls like the waters of the river that flows through its page: from intertwined character to character, from landmass to bee, the poems are linked to each other and to land. There are also shades of Juan Rulfo's Pedro Páramo here, in the voices that comprise the town of Encantado, though those voices are not as desperate as the ones we meet in Comala.
