Songs of Exile: Essential Poets series

Autor Banoo Zan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2016
The poems in Songs of Exile are not simply about geographical or political exile. They reveal a metaphorical exile from the poet's lost self, the one she left behind in Iran, her place of origin, the one she has struggled to preserve all her life. They reveal concern about the Middle East and the negative associations with Iran; preoccupation with the possibility of reconciliation between the three Abrahamic religions; worries about family back home; and broodings on newly found friends and lovers. In these poems, the political is personal.

Recenzii

Bnoo Zans Songs of Exile are spare, powerful poems of longing for (re)union with the Beloved, reaching out to invisible borders of non-duality. Repetition, paradox and oxymoron become in these poems a chaos of harmony the poets words drunk with self, other, truth, the Word. Her prophetic tongue of fire sets readers hearts burning within them. -- Kate Marshall Flaherty
