A rendering of Joudah's survivance, \u003ci\u003e[...]\u003c\/i\u003e speaks to Palestine's daily and historic erasure and insists on presence inside and outside the ancestral land. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResponding to the unspeakable in real time, Joudah offers multiple ways of seeing the world through a Palestinian lens--a world filled with ordinary desires, no matter how grand or tragic the details may be--and asks their reader to be changed by them. The sequences are meditations on a carousel: the past returns as the future is foretold. But \"Repetition won't guarantee wisdom,\" Joudah writes, demanding that we resuscitate language \"before [our] wisdom is an echo.\" These poems of urgency and care sing powerfully through a combination of intimate clarity and great dilations of scale, sending the reader on heartrending spins through echelons of time. \u003ci\u003e[...]\u003c\/i\u003e is a wonder. Joudah reminds us \"Wonder belongs to all.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atticus Bookshop Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47403274305785,"sku":"9781639551286","price":27.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/4535\/6025\/files\/20588773482771.jpg?v=1770507134","url":"https:\/\/www.atticusbooksandart.com.au\/products\/ellipsis","provider":"Atticus Bookshop Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
