Trekking from the U.S. to the Caribbean and Canada--wind at their back, ear to the ground, listening for the logos of what trembles underfoot-- the poems in MUSIC FOR EXILE syncretize a host of lyrical, received and invented forms to beckon a mythic assemblage, an aggregation of personal and historical losses, intimate and en masse. From walking up Canefield River to hearing a thief on the stairs in Philadelphia, from dredging the voices of New England's enslaved to confronting familial grief, these poems trouble the ache, that ironic hunger for home when home is itself a vortex of violence. In poems of place, poems of encounter, domestic epics and epistolary calls, deGannes allows both the narrative and associative to limn the caesurae in one immigrant woman's arc. The poems trace and retrace, they crossover, they draw poison out they fissure desire and proclaim no one can say gone is gone, enacting and inviting an expansive reckoning of all that has brought us here. From this, might be salvaged a radical sense of belonging, Glissant's knowledge of the Whole, greater for having been at the abyss. MUSIC FOR EXILE is Nehassaiu deGannes' first book-length collection of poems.

Book Song of Exile

  • Author : David W. Stowe
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2016-04-01
  • ISBN : 0190466855
  • Pages : 300 pages

Download or read book Song of Exile written by David W. Stowe and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oft-referenced and frequently set to music, Psalm 137 - which begins "By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion" - has become something of a cultural touchstone for music and Christianity across the Atlantic world. It has been a top single more than once in the 20th century, from Don McLean's haunting Anglo-American folk cover to Boney M's West Indian disco mix. In Song of Exile, David Stowe uses a wide-ranging, interdisciplinary approach that combines personal interviews, historical overview, and textual analysis to demonstrate the psalm's enduring place in popular culture. The line that begins Psalm 137 - one of the most lyrical of the Hebrew Bible - has been used since its genesis to evoke the grief and protest of exiled, displaced, or marginalized communities. Despite the psalm's popularity, little has been written about its reception during the more than 2,500 years since the Babylonian exile. Stowe locates its use in the American Revolution and the Civil Rights movement, and internationally by anti-colonial Jamaican Rastafari and immigrants from Ireland, Korea, and Cuba. He studies musical references ranging from the Melodians' Rivers of Babylon to the score in Kazakh film Tulpan. Stowe concludes by exploring the presence and absence in modern culture of the often-ignored final words: "Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones." Usually excised from liturgy and forgotten by scholars, Stowe finds these words echoed in modern occurrences of genocide and ethnic cleansing, and more generally in the culture of vengeance that has existed in North America from the earliest conflicts with Native Americans. Based on numerous interviews with musicians, theologians, and writers, Stowe reconstructs the rich and varied reception history of this widely used, yet mysterious, text.

Download or read book Songs Out of Exile written by Cullen Gouldsbury and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Songs Out of Exile: Being Verses of African Sunshine, Shadow, and Black Man's Twilight Most of the following verses have already appeared in a little volume Rhodesian Rhymes, published by Messrs. Philpott and Collins, of Bulawayo. Some few were contributed to South African periodicals subsequently to the appearance of that volume - the remainder are now printed for the first time. Many of the verses in lighter vein and of more purely topical interest which were included in Rhodesian Rhymes have been omitted from this selection; they were, perhaps, amusing in their day, but that day is done, and they were hardly worth perpetuating. I must repeat my acknowledgments to the editors of The Rhodesian Times, The South African Magazine, The Rhodesian Advertiser, The Rhodesian, The African Monthly, for permission to republish, and must also add my thanks to Messrs. Philpott and Collins for their courtesy in permitting the publication of this edition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • Author : Dave Eggers
  • Publisher : Vintage Canada
  • Release : 2009-02-24
  • ISBN : 0307371379
  • Pages : 563 pages

Download or read book What Is the What written by Dave Eggers and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2009-02-24 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is the What is the story of Valentino Achak Deng, a refugee in war-ravaged southern Sudan who flees from his village in the mid-1980s and becomes one of the so-called Lost Boys. Valentino’s travels bring him in contact with enemy soldiers, with liberation rebels, with hyenas and lions, with disease and starvation, and with deadly murahaleen (militias on horseback)–the same sort who currently terrorize Darfur. Eventually Deng is resettled in the United States with almost 4000 other young Sudanese men, and a very different struggle begins. Based closely on true experiences, What Is the What is heartbreaking and arresting, filled with adventure, suspense, tragedy, and, finally, triumph.

Book Varieties of Exile

  • Author : Mavis Gallant
  • Publisher : New York Review of Books
  • Release : 2003-11-30
  • ISBN : 9781590170601
  • Pages : 348 pages

Download or read book Varieties of Exile written by Mavis Gallant and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2003-11-30 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mavis Gallant is the modern master of what Henry James called the international story, the fine-grained evocation of the quandaries of people who must make their way in the world without any place to call their own. The irreducible complexity of the very idea of home is especially at issue in the stories Gallant has written about Montreal, where she was born, although she has lived in Paris for more than half a century. Varieties of Exile, Russell Banks's extensive new selection from Gallant's work, demonstrates anew the remarkable reach of this writer's singular art. Among its contents are three previously uncollected stories, as well as the celebrated semi-autobiographical sequence about Linnet Muir—stories that are wise, funny, and full of insight into the perils and promise of growing up and breaking loose.
