Europe, Love Me Back
Rakhshan Rizwan
Ă propos de ce livre
Europe, Love Me Back is a collection of relentlessly questing, sharply satirical poems about the continent, and the poet's fraught relationship with it. Hurting yet clear-eyed, Rizwan explores and exposes what it means to be a small brown woman in Dutch suburbs, hospitals and academiaThis is an angry love letter, to a place left behind yet always there, continuing to matter and hurt and shape the poet's identity.
"But no one was interested in eliciting my testimony;
after all I wasn't dead â I wasn't ill â and hadn't this
country treated me so well?
For it is not a human right to be much more than Agamben's bare life,
to exist in the hallowed halls of the academe,
because there comes a point when our wanting
is simply too much, obscene â"
