Poetry. Essays. Middle Eastern Studies. These interrelated meditations explore the nature of the individual spirit and the individual spiritedness of the natural world. As skilled a philosopher as she is a poet, in SEA AND FOG, Adnan weaves multiple sonic, theoretical, and syntactic pleasures at once. "Etel Adnan sharpens the starkness of the world of matter and anti-matter. These texts are psalms that stretch from the sublime to the violent, journey from Yosemite Valley to a soldier's jeep in the desert, and gather from Dostoevsky to Scalapino. A history, a gospel, a prayer book, it dwells in the divine"-Elmaz Abinader.

Industry Reviews

Awards: Winner The 2013 Lambda Book Prize in Poetry (Lesbian Poetry) Winner: The 2013 California Book Award in Poetry Runner-Up: The 2013 Arab American Book Award Review Quote: "This is the vision of an artist who has seen and thought much, and whose concern for the universe of which she counts herself a citizen runs deep... Sea and Fog concerns itself with universal forces, refusing to shy away from the most tragic repeating cycles of human nature: departure, death, war, and love. Hope, in its conventional form, may not be present in these pages, but deep understanding that may lead us there-that, perhaps, we may read into the endless motion of Adnan's fog-fringed sea."-Lambda Literary Review "Etel Adnan sharpens the starkness of the world of matter and anti-matter. These texts are psalms that stretch from the sublime to the violent, journey from Yosemite Valley to a soldier's jeep in the desert, and gather from Dostoevsky to Scalapino.
