Description
"Beneath my balcony, the handy man tumble-dries a tv advertisement in the washing machine of his song sparrow throat. An old man now, I dream of white rabbits, running down tunnels, far from the hunter's hands. The alarm clock shuffles its pack of sleeping hours: a clicking of claws, needles knitting outwards towards death's guillotine while the sharp beaks of roosters dig for the dawn." At the Edge of Obsidian is the second book in The Oaxacan Trilogy. It was first published in 2005 and outlines the events of a single day in the City of Oaxaca (Mexico). I have always loved the Liturgical Books of Hours and wondered if they would transfer into a Secular Book of Hours based on a day in a place with which I was familiar. This is my effort to do just that. Obsidian's Edge begins at daybreak with church bells and early morning street sounds that shake the sleeper from his dreams. It continues with the bells awakening the sleeper for yet another day.
