Jerusalem, Beloved

Brandt travels to Jerusalem to visit a friend and to witness the intifada of occupied Palestine."The good writers offer something new--new to them and new to you. Here Di Brandt collects three long poems that bring honour to our culture. The title sequence is a marvellous achievement. It is a love story filled with hope, yearning, beauty and sadness. I have never seen Palestine so clear."--George Bowering
