The Light That Burns Us

Viac o knihe

The English debut of one of Greece's most radical and original poetic voices. "...an explosive cadence... Khaleed's sentiment toward the would-be aesthetes seems clear: 'Fuck off, flower poets.'"--David Wallace, The New Yorker "[Jazra Khaleed] stands up to fascism by writing and performing Greek-language poetry that is unmatched in technical bravura, emotional depth, and political urgency. He performs his poetry at a lightning clip -- so fast the Nazis can barely keep up, let alone talk back -- a hip-hop emcee in a fever."--Max Ritvo, LA Review of Books "...agitated and delirious and necessary."--Lotte L.S, Mute Poetry.
