Inspired by a months-long search for a wounded lost cat named Chicken, The Lost Cats of Maginhawa: Poetry from Filipino Suburbia is actually an inner meditation on human existence. Hopelessness, heteronormativity, romantic love, and even capitalism are not spared by the poet’s low-level hellish/feverish visions of suburban life, decay, and acceptance.
With magical illustrations from self-taught artist Sarah Redor, The Lost Cats of Maginhawa imbues cats, and the world they let us enter, with the quietness of consciousness only animals—and our now muted secret selves—allow us to access. The book is a cat-call to our own awakenings again.
