Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This mini-anthology is the outbound leg of our pair of titles celebrating train travel, and it takes us on some fascinating worldwide adventures. Again and again the poems dramatise the fact that when we board a train we open ourselves up to unexpected and vivid encounters. Trains can't help being political; they cover vast distances and experience far more than we ever will: Racing on iron errands, the trains go by, and over the white acres of our orchards hurl their wild summoning cry, their animal cry from 'The Trains' by Judith Wright Most of all, the selection is alive to the sheer power of trains their ability to carry us away and also to make us stop in our tracks to take stock of exactly where we are.

Paperback. Condition: New. High Desert is a psychedelic journal of end-times and an ode to the American Southwest. Exploring such key events as the First Red Scare, the Tulsa Race Massacre and the West Coast's wildfire epidemic, Naffis-Sahely's reflections on class, race, and nationalism chart the region's hidden histories from the Spanish Colonial Era to the recent pandemic. The poems in High Desert also revel in their rootlessness, as the author shifts his gaze outside of the US, travelling from Venice and Florence to Chittagong and St Petersburg, tackling our turbulent times and the depths of its problems in searing, extraordinary poems of witness and vision.High Desert is André Naffis-Sahely's second collection, following his debut The Promised Land: Poems from Itinerant Life (Penguin Books, 2017), a gathering of portraits of promised lands and those who go in search of them: travellers, labourers, dreamers; the hopeful and the dispossessed.
