Mouna invites you to contemplate the tiles she carries in a box owned by a daughter of North African immigrants who found themselves in Los Angeles, a town very reminiscent of their \"home\"... a town where the swaying mezcla of languages, landscapes, flavors, and cultural traditions all draw immigrants to understand, in their deepest, and beyond the reach of clichÃ¨, that they are of the other and the other is in themselves. These poems offer a gallery walk through Mouna's sojourns, their timbre at times soft, and stark at others. Mouna's writing borrows imagery and aesthetics of North Africa and Southern California both - a Mediterranean-connected aesthetic that is perfectly at ease playing in the spaces of hybridity, even, and maybe especially, when that play involves movement. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fifth Avenue Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45165827293335,"sku":"9781956697308","price":1376.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781956697308.webp?v=1768573537","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/zmagria-9781956697308","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
