OLVIDOS
Poetry. "Bennett has been the avant in avant-garde in the latter half of the 20th century with his Lost and Found Times, one of the great 'small press poetry rags' of all time, and then through his Luna Bisonte Prods press. OLVIDOS ('Memories'; though the word also and literally means 'things forgotten') is quite possibly his masterpiece. 339 pages of zany often inarticulate expositions of a kind of lunar madness that can only be the work of the descendent of such poets as Vicente Huidobro and Guillaume Apollinaire. There is most likely something for everyone here from minimalist visual techniques and zen-like koans to architectured poems such as 'olvidos y fragmentos' with its enigmatic phrase 'lock the boot.' But then the entire text is one immense sequence of enigmatic and puzzling dicta, summed up best in his own portmanteau word, 'hablacagada.' This is an important work and should place Bennett centrally on the map of great, innovative American poets."—Ivan Argüelles

Recognizing the interplay between biomedicine and indigenous medicine among the Mapuche in Southern Chile, this book explores notions of culture and personhood through the bodily experiences and medical choices of patients. Through case studies of patients in the context of medical pluralism, Kristensen argues that medical practices are powerful social symbol indicative of overarching socio-political processes. As certain types of extreme and violent experiences–known as olvidos–lack a framework that allows them to be expressed openly, they therefore surface as symptoms of an illness, often with no apparent organic pathology. In these contexts, indigenous medicine, thanks to its sensitivity to socio-political contexts, provides a space for articulation and management of collective experiences and suffering among patients in Southern Chile.
