ABOUT THE BOOK

Boringkén
Ediciones Callejón / La Tertulia (San Juan)
2008

Boringkén is a book of poems with rock/spoken word CD, the latest collaboration between Urayoán Noel (Las flores del mall; Kool Logic) and composer Monxo López (Spanic Attack). It's a text-sound hybrid, a pro-forma performance: Boringkén is the (com)promised land of tourists in tedium ("the boring Barbie with her boring Ken!"), impossible cities, botched tropics, terrorists in walkups, and leather-clad bankers. Seventeen poems that oscillate between litany and parody, between the stage and the stanza, tuned to electrobeats and lounge-plena. It's postpunk poetry for the shopworn masses.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Urayoán Noel (San Juan, Puerto Rico, 1976) is the author of the books of poetry Las flores del mall (2000) and Kool Logic/La lógica kool (El Nuevo Día Book of the Year, 2006). He collaborated with composer Monxo López on the performance poetry DVD Kool Logic Sessions (2005), which he has presented nationally and internationally. Also a translator and critic, his recent essays, reviews, and translations appear in Bomb, Mandorla and CENTRO Journal. He lives and writes in the South Bronx.
