Paperback. Condizione: New. In the city of Beirut, five shabby dwellings circle a courtyard in which stands a pomegranate tree weeping blood red fruit. The residents hear screams in the night as a boy is beaten by his father for masturbating in his sleep. A crime not worthy of the punishment - the neighbours gossip and decide he must have tried to rape his sister. The poems he writes are perhaps an even greater crime to his father, but ultimately a gift to his eldest sister, who narrates their story with a combination of brutal truth and stunning prose.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Venus Khoury-Ghata is an outstanding figure in contemporary literature, with a prolific output in both poetry and prose. She is celebrated for her immersive landscapes and folkloric narratives, drawn from her upbringing in Lebanon but expressed in the language of France, where she has lived since 1972. In Khoury-Ghatas poetry, Arabic and French literary traditions merge like water from the river and the waterfall. Her mesmeric sequences plunge us into a semi-surreal world where humans and trees, plants, animals and the elements themselves are intertwined and yet forever fluid a world where we are urged to leave our voices behind, to listen better. This book presents an extended extract from her 2018 collection Gens de leau, and includes an afterword by Karen McCarthy Woolf."River-fresh and supple in Marilyn Hackers English translation, Khoury-Ghatas voice has the authority and cadence of the practised story-teller. While morally alert, she avoids message-preaching, dodges abstraction. Symbols are never merely symbolic but tangible objects, weighed in the hands, felt under the feet. Readers will find themselves spellbound into a circle of enchanted childhood as they follow the narrative rhythms and shifting moods - sometimes joyous, sometimes elegiac, and sometimes expressing a fine defiance."- Carol Rumens Venus Khoury-Ghata is an outstanding figure in contemporary literature, with a prolific output in both poetry and prose. Her mesmeric sequences plunge us into a semi-surreal world where humans and trees, plants, animals and the elements themselves are intertwined and yet forever fluid.
