Postcolonial Love Poem: Poems

BasicBinding: Paperback

Author: Diaz, Natalie

Publisher: Graywolf Press

Date Published: 03-2020

ISBN: 1644450143 | EAN: 9781644450147

BasicBinding: Paperback

Features: Price on Product | Pages: 80

Annotation: "Postcolonial Love Poem is an anthem of desire against erasure. Natalie Diaz's brilliant second collection demands that every body carried in its pages--bodies of language, land, rivers, suffering brothers, enemies, and lovers--be touched and held as beloveds. Through these poems, the wounds inflicted by America onto an indigenous people are allowed to bloom pleasure and tenderness: "Let me call my anxiety, desire, then. / Let me call it, a garden." In this new lyrical landscape, the bodies of indigenous, Latinx, black, and brown women are simultaneously the body politic and the body ecstatic. In claiming this autonomy of desire, language is pushed to its dark edges, the astonishing dunefields and forests where pleasure and love are both grief and joy, violence and sensuality.

Divine Comedy

ISBN: 1607109913 | EAN: 9781607109914

BasicBinding: Leather

Features: Price on Product, Bookmark, Illustrated, Table of Contents | Pages: 664

Annotation: Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso -- the three fates of the deceased become the three pillars of an epic poem. "The Divine Comedy," written by Italian poet Dante Alighieri in the fourteenth century, is considered the foremost work in Italian literature. The journey begins with Dante's descent into the depths of Hell where he witnesses those eternally separated from God. Then he climbs the mountain of Purgatory where Christian souls undergo final purification, before finally touring the celestial circles of Heaven where he is filled with the image of God. An allegorical work, the comedy is representative of the soul's journey towards God.
Influential for seven centuries, this classic is a must have for lovers of great literature, and the luxurious leather-bound edition from Canterbury Classics will make a stunning addition to any library.

"êAmot" is the Chamoru word for "medicine," and commonly refers to medicinal plants. Traditional healers were known as yo'êamte, and they gathered êamot in the jungle, and recited chants and invocations of taotao'mona, or ancestral spirits, in the healing process. Through experimental and visual poetry, Perez explores how storytelling can become a symbolic form of êamot, offering healing from the traumas of colonialism, militarism, migration, environmental injustice, and the death of elders"--

Moon That Turns You Back: Poems

BasicBinding: Paperback

Author: Alyan, Hala

Publisher: Ecco Press

Date Published: 03-2024

ISBN: 0063317478 | EAN: 9780063317475

BasicBinding: Paperback

Features: Price on Product | Pages: 112

Annotation: "A diaspora of memories runs through this poetry collection--a multiplicity of voices, bodies, and houses hold archival material for one another, tracing paths between Brooklyn, Beirut, and Jerusalem. Boundaries and borders blur between space and time and poetic form--small banal moments of daily life live within geopolitical brutalities and, vice versa, the desire for stability lives in familiarity with displacement. These poems take stock of who and what can displace you from home and from your own body--and, conversely, the kind of resilience, tenacity, and love that can bring you back into yourself and into the context of past and future generations. Hala Alyan asks, What stops you from transforming into someone or something else? When you have lived a life in flux, how do you find rest?"--
