How does one recover from addiction without destroying the self-as-addict? And if living justly in a nation that would see them erased is, too, a kind of self-destruction, what does one do with the body's question, \"\u003ci\u003ewhat now shall I repair?\u003c\/i\u003e\" Here, Akbar responds with prayer as an act of devotion to dissonance-the infinite void of a loved one's absence, the indulgence of austerity, making a life as a Muslim in an Islamophobic nation-teasing the sacred out of silence and stillness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRichly crafted and generous, \u003ci\u003ePilgrim Bell\u003c\/i\u003e's linguistic rigor is tuned to the register of this moment and any moment. As the swinging soul crashes into its limits, against the atrocities of the American empire, and through a profoundly human capacity for cruelty and grace, these brilliant poems dare to exist in the empty space where song lives-resonant, revelatory, and holy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9781644450598\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePoems\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9781644450598","offer_id":58384029188421,"sku":"9781644450598","price":15.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/7aa818e3-e6bd-453d-ad1d-0b1094c21071.jpg?v=1782447067","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/pilgrim-bell-von-kaveh-akbar","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
