Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: Very Good. High Desert is a psychedelic journal of end-times and an ode to the American Southwest. Exploring such key events as the First Red Scare, the Tulsa Race Massacre and the West Coasts wildfire epidemic, Naffis-Sahelys reflections on class, race, and nationalism chart the regions hidden histories from the Spanish Colonial Era to the recent pandemic. The poems in High Desert also revel in their rootlessness, as the author shifts his gaze outside of the US, travelling from Venice and Florence to Chittagong and St Petersburg, tackling our turbulent times and the depths of its problems in searing, extraordinary poems of witness and vision. High Desert is Andre Naffis-Sahelys second collection, following his debut The Promised Land: Poems from Itinerant Life (Penguin Books, 2017), a gathering of portraits of promised lands and those who go in search of them: travellers, labourers, dreamers; the hopeful and the dispossessed. It includes poems from his recent pamphlet The Other Side of Nowhere (Rough Trade Books, 2019). All his collections present poetry as reportage, as much an act of memory as of sinuous, clear-eyed vision. Andre Naffis-Sahely is a poet, editor and translator, and editor of Poetry London. He is a Visiting Teaching Fellow at the Manchester Writing School in the UK, and a Lecturer at University of California, Davis, in the US. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This mini-anthology is the outbound leg of our pair of titles celebrating train travel, and it takes us on some fascinating worldwide adventures. Again and again the poems dramatise the fact that when we board a train we open ourselves up to unexpected and vivid encounters. Trains can't help being political; they cover vast distances and experience far more than we ever will: Racing on iron errands, the trains go by, and over the white acres of our orchards hurl their wild summoning cry, their animal cry from 'The Trains' by Judith Wright Most of all, the selection is alive to the sheer power of trains their ability to carry us away and also to make us stop in our tracks to take stock of exactly where we are. Poems by Mahmoud Darwish, Paul Durcan, Langston Hughes, Ada Limon, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Alice Duer Miller, Andre Naffis-Sahely, Mary Ruefle, Declan Ryan and Judith Wright. Cover illustration by Gail Brodholt. Includes one poetry pamphlet, envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message.

Condizione: new. There has always been an intense physicality to DAguiars work, matched by a penchant for geographic groundedness and a biographical perspicacity, that has made him one of the finest writers of his generation. What is most striking about this chapbook is how much keeps him dreaming, even in places and situations where many imaginations would stumble and falter in the face of the relentless violence to which we have all become far too inured. There is hardly a Black British writer working today who doesnt owe DAguiar a considerable debt, whether they know it or not.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Arresting reports of hardship, hope, 21st-century exile and the open road from a debut poet who has known them allFlitting from the mud-soaked floors of Venice to the glittering, towering constructions of the Abu Dhabi of his childhood and early adulthood, from the 'disposable cities' composed of shanty towns and rough encampments which spring up wherever new resources are discovered to present-day London and North America, Andre Naffis-Sahely's bracingly plain-spoken first collection gathers portraits of promised lands and those who go in search of them- travellers, labourers, dreamers; the hopeful and the dispossessed. This is poetry as reportage, as much an act of memory as of sinuous, clear-eyed vision. As this arresting new poet has remarked elsewhere- 'I don't like poems that invent memories; I have enough of my own.'
