Book Description
Excerpt from Hard Labor and Other Poems Hard Labor I I work, and as the task is done I brood On what has been and what is yet to pass, A life spilt from an idly-handled glass, And days as this, an endless multitude. Labor and brooding - is there then no rest? Day follows day, and in the silent nights Throng ghostly memories of past delights, Faces I loved, and lips that I have pressed, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Hard Damage works to relentlessly interrogate the self and its shortcomings. In lyric and documentary poems and essayistic fragments, Aria Aber explores the historical and personal implications of Afghan American relations. Drawing on material dating back to the 1950s, she considers the consequences of these relations--in particular the funding of the Afghan mujahedeen, which led to the Taliban and modern-day Islamic terrorism--for her family and the world at large. Invested in and suspicious of the pain of family and the shame of selfhood, the speakers of these richly evocative and musical poems mourn the magnitude of citizenship as a state of place and a state of mind. While Hard Damage is framed by free-verse poetry, the middle sections comprise a lyric essay in fragments and a long documentary poem. Aber explores Rilke in the original German, the urban melancholia of city life, inherited trauma, and displacement on both linguistic and environmental levels, while employing surrealist and eerily domestic imagery.
