Description: Exit Wounds by Tariq Malik Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description What does it mean to feel at home? In his ground-breaking debut collection EXIT WOUNDS, Indo-Canadian poet Tariq Malik weaves together history and myth with his own familys experiences of immigration to uncover what it truly means to belong. Whether he is recalling his childhood memories of the death of his father, imaging himself as a dead soldier lost in the sands of the Kuwaiti desert, or drawing upon his familys experience of three wars and migrations, Maliks moving search for home will resonate with anyone who has ever felt at odds with a dominant monoculture. Maliks poetry combines traditional Punjabi mythology and First Nations symbolism with contemporary events that have shaped the lives of immigrants: 9/11, RCMP violence, war. The result is a defiant triumph of the plurality of minority experiences -- a poetic chorus of immigrants and their descendants coming home to the truth and power of their many worlds. Author Biography "For the past four decades, Vancouver-based author Tariq Malik has worked across poetry, fiction, and visual arts, to distill immersive and compelling narratives that are always original and intriguing. He writes intensely in response to the world in flux around him and of his place in its shadows. Born in Pakistani Punjab, he came reluctantly late to these shores. To get here, he first had to survive three wars, two migrations, and two decades of slaving in the Kuwaiti desert. He firmly believes his passion for distilling the alchemy of light/chroma/pixel, and his bouts of furious thinking about life and words in general, can all be happily and gainfully combined. He loves landscapes, bodies of living water large and small, and readers and listeners, and claims he writes so that he has something to read to his tribe on Open Mic Night at the local Poets Corner or on the hallowed grounds of public libraries."
