About Mudança:

"Mudança is first and foremost a book of discovery—of a new muse from Brazil, or 'moose,' as she pronounces it; of a new language, Portuguese, in which mispronunciations turn shoes into toads and hair into horses, stampeding; of a new rainbow-colored currency, a veritable Noah's ark, what with the fauna that 'house' therein ... and to a lesser extent a book of rediscovery—of the poet's mother tongue, the 'patois' that mothers speak to babies; of a transcendental 'yes,' as expressed in hymns from childhood; and of ecstasy on the playground, and humiliation, which led the poet, in second grade, to swear off dancing. But he changed his stance, the poet did, and Mudança (the Portuguese word for 'change,' which maybe 'contains the word for 'dance'') is a witty and poignant and life-affirming 'letting loose.'"
