Bad Diaspora Poems

Описание

The definition of diaspora is the dispersion of people from their original homeland. But what does it mean to write diaspora poetry? Momtaza Mehri`s debut collection poses this question, taking us from Mogadishu to Naples, Lampedusa to London. Mixing her own family`s experience with the stories of many others across nineteenth- and twentieth-century Somalia, Bad Diaspora Poems confronts the ambivalent nature of speaking for those who have been left behind.Фотографии
