Asia & Haiti

By: Alexander, Will

"In Asia & Haiti, Will Alexander's poetry functions as syncretic engine-combusting indigenous history, esoterica, and spiritual practice, with postcolonial criticism, political theory, and modern science-to generate a densely woven re-visioning of history. This 30th-anniversary second edition re-presents a classic book with new artwork by Alexander's longtime collaborator, Byron Baker. It also includes a new preface by the author contextualizing the work within the present-day Tibetan liberation struggle and considerations of Haiti as a powerful symbol of resistance vis-áa-vis "our contemporary political un-settlement." "Asia & Haiti," he writes, "takes up the tenor of continuing solar presence... far beyond calculable political fatigue, being alive as grammar via a living future.""--
