Weather Report

In Weather Report, Carmen Boullosa turns weather into a language of desire, memory, mortality, and transformation, bringing together two remarkable poems: "Fog," an uncanny meditation in which a man digs into the earth and discovers a woman who seems to have been waiting there outside the rules of time, and "Autumn in Brooklyn," a sequence of luminous, irreverent fragments in which leaves, bodies, streets, and skyscrapers become mirrors of age, memory, and change.

Moving between myth and the everyday, intimate and cosmic scale, Boullosa makes the natural world speak in a language charged with eros, violence, humor, and tenderness. Fog slows time; autumn measures it.
