Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A shaman and visionarynot a poet in any ordinary senseMara Sabina lived out her life in the Oaxacan mountain village of Huautla de Jimnez, and yet her words, always sung or spoken, have carried far and wide, a principal instance and a powerful reminder of how poetry can arise in a context far removed from literature as such. Seeking cures through languagewith the help of Psilocybe mushrooms, said to be the source of language itselfshe was, as Henry Munn describes her, 'a genius [who] emerges from the soil of the communal, religioustherapeutic folk poetry of a native Mexican campesino people.' She may also have been, in the words of the Mexican poet Homero Aridjis, 'the greatest visionary poet in twentiethcentury Latin America.'These selections include a generous presentation from Sabina's recorded chants and a complete English translation of her oral autobiography, her vida, as written and arranged in her native language by her fellow Mazatec Alvaro Estrada. Accompanying essays and poems include an introduction to 'The Life of Mara Sabina' by Estrada, an early description of a nighttime 'mushroom velada' by the ethnomycologist R. Gordon Wasson, an essay by Henry Munn relating the language of Sabina's chants to those of other Mazatec shamans, and more.
