Paperback. Condición: New. This collection of poems speaks to an individual's place and emotions during war. The wars depicted in this volume - the 'history wars', the Iran-Iraq War of the 1980s, 'the war against terror', 'the clash of civilisations', etc - form the background against which the speaker's language seethes and writhes. These fractured lyrics - or 'antiheroic couplets' - take place in a volatile space in the aftermath of ancient conquests and prior to future atrocities. Here the medieval Persian poet Rumi is seen escaping the Mongolian hordes; Satan debates Archangel Michael at the battle of Heaven and Hell; the Jewish thinker Walter Benjamin contemplates the Holocaust; an imprisoned writer becomes a saviour and a revolutionary radical is branded traitor; an account of the author's experiences of the Islamic Revolution of Iran and the war with Saddam Hussein is narrated; and contemporary Australia is seen as a nation engaged in an unremitting conflict against the land's original inhabitants and its Asian neighbours. History and a desire for peace form the central discourse of this book's poems that deconstruct the desire for war, undermine the beliefs in religious and cultural identity that often provoke wars, and advocate non-participation and a rejection of the glorification of 'us' and the demonisation of the 'other'. Also included in this volume are love poems and translations from works of Sufi mystics to show that the opposite of war is, if not always allowed, then at the very least imaginable in these times of hostility and conflict.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Towards the End presents thecontemporary world as broken and dying, a world that is moving irreversiblytowards collapse as well as rebirth. The collection begins with the speaker'sdisillusion with the ideals of capitalism, and the ironic realisation thathappiness and prosperity may no longer be attainable. The middle section of thecollection reflects, with dark humour and a controlled anger, on thedysfunction of our socio-political systems and the signs of theirdisintegration. The final poems in the book imagine a universal humanity beyondthe failures of the contemporary world, and prophesy global resistance,rejuvenation and revolution. The collection may be described as a fusion ofsocial satire, gothic dystopia and historical materialism, interwoven withautobiographical reflection. Towards the End presents the contemporary world as broken and dying, a world that is moving irreversibly towards collapse as well as rebirth.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Jeanne is a young woman from rural France. She's a knight who wears men's clothing. The English call her Joan of Arc. Jeanne has led France to victory in epic battles. She hears ghostly voices and has unspeakable desires. The English want to burn her. Her king has abandoned her. Her heart has been broken. Her heart cannot be burnt. This is her story, and the story of her beloved.Ali Alizadeh's novel The Last Days of Jeanne d'Arc is a provocative new portrait of the life of one of history's most fascinating figures. Countless books have been written about the young Frenchwoman who claimed to hear the voices of saints, led the armies of France in the war against England in the Middle Ages, and was captured and burnt for heresy by her enemies. Based on a rigorous study of the historical material, The Last Days of Jeanne d'Arc provides the first serious dramatisation of Jeanne's sexuality. Alizadeh uses an innovative storytelling technique that weaves together multiple narrative perspectives to tell the story of a courageous young woman who, driven by a passion for justice and forbidden desire, changes the course of Western history.
