About This Item
Paperback / softback. New. <b>Poetry that serves as an evocative portrayal of diverse landscapes and cultures.</b><br />  <br /> In these otherworldly poetry sequences, Samira Negrouche reminds us that âall life is movement,â where âtime passes through me / beings pass through me / they are me / I am them.â The âIâ is representative of one voice, three voices, all voices, all rooted in movement as their bodies brush past one another, brush against thresholds of time and space. Everything is in fluxâincluding the dream-like landscapes at the borders of bordersâas the poet seeks to recover parts of self and memory, on both a personal and universal level. In these poems, history-laden locales such as Algiers, Timbuktu, NâDjamena, Cotonou, Zanzibar, Cape Town, and Gorée are evoked. Even the language, expertly and sensitively translated by Nancy Naomi Carlson, refuses to be pinned down, as it loops back on itself. At times contradictory, at times fractured in meaning, syntax, and diction, the playful language is riddled with ârestlessâ verbs. In the end, the âIâ takes on prophetic overtones, instilling hope for the future.
