In Flesh of Leviathan, Chus Pato alters her cadence to record, in sombre lyric form, the direct address of a singular voice that seems to emerge from time itself. In these poems, worldly things are largely absent and those present are iconic: birds, skies, winds. Through them, Pato articulates the possibility of thinking, the foreignness of any thinking subject, the borders to be crossed to move thinking forward, and the relation of thinking with time as humanity approaches--or not--time's end.

CHUS PATO teaches history and geography in a small city in central Galicia in the north-west of Spain, and writes in the Galician language. Her sixth book of poetry and first in her pentalogy Decrúa (Tilth or Arable), m-Talá, broke the poetic mould in Galicia in 2000. Flesh of Leviathan, the final text in the pentalogy, is the first to be published in the USA. ERÍN MOURE has published seventeen books of poetry, and has translated thirteen volumes from French, Spanish, Galician and Portuguese into English. Flesh of Leviathan is Moure's latest translation, and her fifth of Chus Pato.
