    "Ask the Brindled, selected by Rick Barot as a winner of the 2021 National Poetry Series, bares everything that breaks between "seed" and "summit" of a life-the body, a people, their language. It is an intergenerational reclamation of the narratives foisted upon Indigenous and queer Hawaiians-and it does not let readers look away"--

    ┬á Selected by Yusef Komunyakaa ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á as one of five volumes published in 1996 in the National Poetry Series ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á "Marcus Cafagña is a poet who shies at nothing, who will ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á not turn away from what he sees--ordinary people struggling against, and ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á sometimes breaking on, the wheel of their fate. The Broken World ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á is a deeply humane and accomplished first book--probing, watchful, compassionate, ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á and necessary." ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á -- Edward Hirsch ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á "I challenge anyone to be unmoved by The Broken World. Cafagña ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á never gives up in these difficult, heart-rending poems." -- Jim Daniels, ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á editor of Letters to America: Contemporary American Poetry on Race ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á The Broken World, the powerful debut of a poet of great depth ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á and maturity, begins with narratives of individuals caught up in circumstance--a ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á distressed girl on a Detroit overpass, a boy shooting baskets at a crisis ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á center. By the end of the slim volume, Marcus Cafagña has led us ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á through the postwar New York of Jewish Holocaust survivors to his native ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á Michigan, where his marriage ended tragically with his wife''s suicide, ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á a death that has come to symbolize for Cafagña the confusion and ┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á madness of the twentieth century. ┬á

    At turns fervent and elegiac, dishy and sly, this title features poems that confront the effect of AIDS and HIV on a brotherhood that dealt firsthand with grief and loss and, later, the tenuous prospect of survival. It includes poems that are unified by their preoccupation with what erodes us and what we can hold onto when life and love devolve.
