The Lost Girls Book of Divination

by Letisia Cruz

The Lost Girls Book of Divination is a stunningly cool graphic poem, aka a lyrical narrative accompanied by captivating imagery, far superior to anything Instagram has to offer! It is a spiritual quest, both ancient and postmodern in its insights, a poetic tarot for the new millennium. It is seasonal, cyclical, and maddeningly like our own lives, resonant with our struggles, offering up the ultimate wisdom—that being alive means being lost. Lastly, it is a powerful statement on the earth and our loss of connectedness to it—for as we unspool from ourselves, forests vanish.

This book might look inviting, like the kiddie pool in your best friend’s backyard: familiar and safe. It is thin in stature and appears easy to lounge in on a summer’s day. But this is no kiddie pool in your best friend’s backyard. This pool has no bottom. It is filled with the secrets that your best friend never wanted to share. It is alive.

It’s a pool you’ll dip into and not leave until it’s finished, your hands like Santa Claus wrinkles. Your mind on fire. And it will have been eons and only minutes, and the clocks will forever look different. And you will watch the second hand spin and spin in anticipation of returning to the depths and befriending the shadows.

Beautiful poems that will break your heart and offer you hope at the same time. It was a lovely experience to process these poems and have the accompanying artwork. Cruz is a talent poet and artist. There’s no doubt she’s going to write more wonderful books and produce more captivating artwork. I can’t wait.
