"Mackey's 'Song of the Andoumboulou' presents this illusive and allusive moment...when two traditions of poetic cosmology--the Dogon tradition of West Africa and the American tradition of the world-poem--cross paths."--Paul Naylor

Reading from Song of the Andoumboulou, with music by multi- instrumentalists Royal Hartigan and Hafez Modirzadeh. Nathaniel
