Poetry/Performance. Latino/Latina Studies. Art. Edited by Rosa Alcal¡. SPIT TEMPLE collects texts and transcriptions of Vicu±a's uncategorizable improvised performances, which combine singing, movement, chants, and stories. Also included are a critical introduction by Rosa Alcal¡, a poetic memoir by Vicu±a (translated by Alcal¡) addressing her life in performance, and a series of response pieces from contemporary writers including Juliana Spahr, Rodrigo Toscano, and Maria Damon.<br /><br />"Vicu±a's work, at its very essense, is 'a way of remembering'€"as if exile and recall joined to unravel an 'autobiography in debris;' as one personal story within a larger narative."€"Roberto Tejada
