Pages : 68

Book Description
There are many ways to tell a story. And there are many ways to read a story. Much like reality, the stories told through poetry can only be understood as fragments- put together piece by piece like a puzzle. “If You Came For Tea And I Didn’t Have A Kettle” is a story of this kind. More specifically, it is a collection of around 50 poems, written over the course of a few years. These are poems written through the last of youth as it fades into the bitter potential of adulthood. These are poems written through the all-encompassing hope, grandeur and delusion at the start of first love, to the end of second love and the calm disappointment it brings. These are poems about one life. These are pieces of a life; and these pieces can be put together however you wish to line them up. Maybe you can even find a glimpse of your own life within their cracked surface.

Go Back to Where You Came From: And Other Helpful Recommendations on How to Become American

Author: Wajahat Ali
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393867986
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 272

Book Description
“Go back to where you came from, you terrorist!” This is just one of the many warm, lovely, and helpful tips that Wajahat Ali and other children of immigrants receive on a daily basis. Go back where, exactly? Fremont, California, where he grew up, but is now an unaffordable place to live? Or Pakistan, the country his parents left behind a half-century ago? Growing up living the suburban American dream, young Wajahat devoured comic books (devoid of brown superheroes) and fielded well-intentioned advice from uncles and aunties. (“Become a doctor!”) He had turmeric stains under his fingernails, was accident-prone, suffered from OCD, and wore Husky pants, but he was as American as his neighbors, with roots all over the world. Then, while Ali was studying at University of California, Berkeley, 9/11 happened. Muslims replaced communists as America’s enemy #1, and he became an accidental spokesman and ambassador of all ordinary, unthreatening things Muslim-y. Now a middle-aged dad, Ali has become one of the foremost and funniest public intellectuals in America. In Go Back to Where You Came From, he tackles the dangers of Islamophobia, white supremacy, and chocolate hummus, peppering personal stories with astute insights into national security, immigration, and pop culture. In this refreshingly bold, hopeful, and uproarious memoir, Ali offers indispensable lessons for cultivating a more compassionate, inclusive, and delicious America.
