Life in a Country Album: Poems
Life in a Country Album: Poems
From migrations to pop culture, loss to la dérive, Life in a Country Album is a soundtrack of the global cultural landscape—borders and citizenship, hybrid identities and home, freedom and pleasure. It’s a vast and moving look at the world, at what home means, and the ways we coexist in an increasingly divided world. These poems are about the dialects of the heart—those we are incapable of parting from, and those that are largely forgotten. Life in a Country Album is a vital book for our times. With this beautiful, epic collection, Nathalie Handal affirms herself as one of our most diverse and important contemporary poets.
Nathalie Handal is an award-winning French-American poet and writer of Middle Eastern descent. She was raised in Latin America, France and the Middle East, and educated in Asia, the United States, and the United Kingdom
