Kaveh Akbar's exquisite, highly anticipated follow-up to Calling a Wolf a Wolf... With formal virtuosity and ruthless precision, Kaveh Akbar's second collection takes its readers on a spiritual journey of disavowal, fiercely attendant to the presence of divinity where artifacts of self and belonging have been shed. 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, "what now shall I repair? " 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.... Richly crafted and generous, Pilgrim Bell'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.… (mais)

I will never read a Kaveh Akbar poem and not learn something. Each line, each image, is surprising and instructive and propulsive and stirring. ( )

i picked this book up because the cover is so gorgeous, and i read it because holding it in my hand felt so good. i didn't know anything about the author or the poems or even that it was poetry at first.

there are a few of these that i thought were really beautiful. mostly, though, i didn't really understand them or what he was doing. the structure of a few were unusual, and in particular i didn't like the way he used punctuation in his pilgrim bell poems, which i can only assume are paramount to the book based on the title. but the language was lovely throughout and his poem how prayer works is one i loved so much that it was worth reading the entire collection just for that one.

"Some pain
stays so long its absence becomes
a different pain --" ( )
