Wild, lyrical poems that examine the connections between physical and interior migration, from award-winning Palestinian American poet, novelist, and clinical psychologist Hala Alyan, author of
Salt Houses.
For Hala Alyan, twenty-nine is a year of transformation and upheaval, a year in which the past-memories of family members, old friends and past lovers, the heat of another land, another language, a different faith-winds itself around the present.
Hala's ever-shifting, subversive verse sifts together and through different forms of forced displacement and the tolls they take on mind and body. Poems leap from war-torn cities in the Middle East, to an Oklahoma Olive Garden, a Brooklyn brownstone; from alcoholism to recovery; from a single woman to a wife. This collection summons breathtaking chaos, one that seeps into the bones of these odes, the shape of these elegies.
A vivid catalog of heartache, loneliness, love and joy,
The Twenty-Ninth Year is an education in looking for home and self in the space between disparate identities.
