{"product_id":"in-a-homeland-not-far-yahya-frederickson-9781941209547","title":"In a Homeland Not Far: New and Selected Poems","description":"\u003cp\u003eYahya Frederickson dares again and again to step into minefields of misinterpretation where unwitting representatives of the powerful and the subdued are supposed to exchange pleasantries of co-optation in the name of world order and cultural independence. The scenes that ensue are not without humor or confusion, but it is the job of the poet to break such dehumanizing performances of difference to reach for the inviolably mutual between us. Frederickson delivers on his ambitious humanist quest with lyrical verve, narrative mastery and numerous spiritual and psychological insights. The poems of \u003cem\u003eIn a Homeland Not Far\u003c\/em\u003e are songs of \"\u003cem\u003ehijrah\"\u003c\/em\u003e and \"hopeful hill\" that make new inroads into empathy and self-awareness. They are songs from the heart of an open and generous spirit, beautifully sung. -Khaled Mattawa, author of \u003cem\u003eMahmoud Darwish: The Poet's Art and His Nation\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yahya Frederickson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1941209548\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781941209547\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Press 53\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/03\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Yahya Frederickson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486414221567,"sku":"9781941209547","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d31a8780-f068-472f-9672-48f647977ab7.jpg?v=1778055359","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/in-a-homeland-not-far-yahya-frederickson-9781941209547","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
