Daughter of the Mountains: Poems of Heartbreak & Homecoming

內容簡介

內容簡介 A "beautiful poetry collection" (Electric Lit) that breaks open notions of faith to ask how a daughter, alienated from kin, can find love and a home in the world, from the award-winning author of If They Come for Us and When We Were Sisters "There is, in Daughter of the Mountains, an almost supernatural sense of connectedness, compassion. It's a blueprint and a manifesto. I sit in stunned gratitude at its guidance."--Kaveh Akbar, New York Times bestselling author of Martyr! at the edge of an edgeis an edge. at that edgeis a cliff. beyond that cliffis me. Exiled from ancestral homelands, how can one find a place for themself in the world? In this stunning sophomore collection, the acclaimed poet Fatimah Asghar unweaves residual grief to reckon with their relationship to Allah, long-estranged but deeply loved kin, the landscape of their ancestors, and love itself. In meditative poems, Daughter of the Mountains grapples with multiple facets of fulfillment, betrayal, love, loss, and longing, illustrating how place, lineage, and environment inform the practice of spirituality and vice versa. With wisps of humor, imagery that is as beautiful as it is startling, and powerfully disruptive formal invention, this is an intimately lyrical and explosive collection.
