Hala's ever-shifting, subversive verse sifts together and through different forms of forced displacement and the tolls they take on mind and body. Poems leap from war-torn cities in the Middle East, to an Oklahoma Olive Garden, a Brooklyn brownstone; from alcoholism to recovery; from a single woman to a wife. This collection summons breathtaking chaos, one that seeps into the bones of these odes, the shape of these elegies.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nA vivid catalog of heartache, loneliness, love and joy, \u003cem\u003eThe Twenty-Ninth Year\u003c\/em\u003e is an education in looking for home and self in the space between disparate identities.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67588735697263,"sku":"9781328511942","price":116.22,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9384\/9711\/files\/1328511944.jpg?v=1790488353","url":"https:\/\/internacional.umlivro.com.br\/products\/twenty-ninth-year-the","provider":"UmLivro Internacional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
