<p><b>An altar is a door; wonder is the key.</b></p><p>What losses and intimacies bring you to this threshold?&#160;<i>Tabako on the Windowsill</i>&#160;contends tenderly&#160;with such questions, initiating through them the work of transformation.</p> <p>To shape an entire book around portals and thresholds is to search for living myth. Hari Alluri&#8217;s poems build from comic books, television, paintings, folklore, music, and a unique imagination. Following an immigrant point of view while maintaining home in a language that engages with blood and chosen family, Alluri offers multiple lived and ancestral spacesin India, the Philippines, Nigeria, the U.S., and Canada. Guided by a burning attention &#8211; to braids of displacement, loss, and joy, to multiple beginnings &#8211; Alluri creates moments where we can expand through the personhood of perception into wider, overlapping worlds of perspective and possibility.</p>
