"Hayan Charara's rich anthology of Arab-American poetry in this moment couldn't be more timely; this book opens eyes, opens worlds." --Mark Doty, author of Fire to Fire: New and Selected Poems "Inclined to Speak is one of the most fruitfully diverse anthologies I have read in years, as its wealth of origins might lead one to expect. Here are poets in the high tradition of international Modernism, inheritors of Neruda, Hikmet, Celan, Ritsos and Darwish, who also deploy American poetry's plural possibilities, drawing from the same sources as Stevens, Oppen, Rukeyser, Brooks, Ginsberg, Rich. Some of these poets can think and sing in more than one language; they all can think beyond monoglot frontiers." --Marilyn Hacker, author of Essays on Departures: New and Selected Poems, 1980-2005 "Inclined to Speak, especially in this Time, Place & Condition, when most of The Free World's Foreign Policy consists of Lies, Slander & Invasion is like Wolfbane when you hear the werewolf howling. It opens the door to a world breathing like our own, but adding dimensions that deepen our understanding of where we are and what time it is, that are immense, dreadful and wonderful." --Amiri Baraka, author of Somebody Blew up America and Other Poems "These poems are a kaleidoscope of stories, visions, memories that offer a kind of transcendence we so desperately need right now. This is a marvelous collection that gives readers room to breathe, to fly, to wonder and to cry." --Persis M.Karim, editor and contributing poet, Let Me Tell You Where I've Been, Inclined to Speak is one of the most fruitfully diverse anthologies I have read in years, as its wealth of origins might lead one to expect.

Some of these poets can think and sing in more than one language; they all can think beyond monoglot frontiers." -- Marilyn Hacker, "In Inclined to Speak, Hayan Charara has brought together some of the finest American poets who also draw on the powerful sense of what it means to be Arab American in the twenty-first century. These poems are a kaleidoscope of stories, visions, memories that offer a kind of transcendence we so desperately need right now. This is a marvelous collection that gives readers room to breathe, to fly, to wonder and to cry." -- Persis M.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
