Paperback. Condition: New. "The empire's missing links are found deep in this poet's ever-astonishing states of multiple consciousness-astutely attuned to the pressured, violent, mass conformities forced upon us-brilliantly formed into poems as ambitious and achieved as any written in the English language today."-Lawrence Joseph… In these dramatic monologues, Walid Bitar delivers variations on the theme of power: in politics, in the subjugation and abuse of other cultures, and in our divided selves. Using satire, parody, koan, and riddle, Divide and Rule struggles with the mendacity of language and identity. They have no maps. Ours, I'll redraw. Isn't itself, their neck of the woods, needs a rest-something more than a nap, and less than death, though death wouldn't hurt. Walid Bitar's poetry collections include 2 Guys on Holy Land, Bastardi Puri, and The Empire's Missing Links. He was born in Beirut and lives in Toronto, Ontario.

Paperback. Condition: New. The poetry of Walid Bitar is a bracing antidote to the decorous meditations and maudlin confessions of much of modern American poetry. Sharp, engaged, and darkly funny, Bitar's poetry explores the conflicts and tensions inherent at the intersection of traditional Western modes of thought with modern ge…opolitical realities. In his first collection, Bitar employs a supple language in a bitingly satiric mode. Bitar's poems are vividly animated by the playful use of American vernacular. He is attempting, he says, to 'move towards a language with the energy, the range of references, and the humor of cabaret.' But beneath the joking and punning there is a darker current of real power, a telegrammatic vision of the tragic consequences of miscomprehension, of the limits of language and human communication, of our inevitable isolation within our own skins.
