"Heriberto Yepez is one of the most active and protean writers of his generation." Review: Literature and Arts of the Americas

"A forceful antipoet, a technician of the boundaries." Los Angeles Review of Books

Famous for picking fights with a range of writers, both living and dead, Tijuana author Heriberto Yépez is in full provocateur-mode in this collection of work written in English over the last fifteen years. An explosive, genre-bending Molotov cocktail of poetic critique.

Heriberto Yépez is the author of A.B.U.R.T.O., Al Otro Lado, and The Empire of Neomemory, among other books. He lives in Tijuana, Mexico.
