The Iraqi poet Nazik al-Malaika was one of the most important Arab poets of the twentieth century. Over the course of a four-decade career, her contributions to both the theory and the practice of free verse (or tafʿilah) poetry confirmed her position as a pioneer of Arab modernism. Revolt Against the Sun presents a selection of Nazik al-Malaika's poetry in English for the first time. Bringing together poems from each of her published collections, it traces al-Mala'ika's transformation from a lyrical Romantic poet in the 1940s to a fervently committed Arab nationalist in the 1970s and 1980s. The translations offer both an overview of her life and work, and an insight into the political and social realities in the Arab world in the decades following the Second World War. Featuring a comprehensive historical and critical introduction, this bilingual reader reveals how one woman transformed the landscape of modern Arabic literature and culture in the twentieth century. It is a key resource for students and teachers of Arabic and world literature, as well as for readers interested in discovering an alternative narrative of modern Iraqi culture.

For David Braxton, his friends call him Davey and you can too, things are finally going right in his life. In his career, he's about to have the biggest week of his life where he works, the prestigious law firm of Myers, Morgan and Moore. In his personal life, he is about to ask his girlfriend, Abigail, to marry him. Life is a dream. For once! Everything in life is perfect, except for... THE DARKNESS A dissociated part of Davey's fractured personality, who just happens to be a serial killer. But don't call The Darkness a murderer (or crazy) because he sees himself as so much more. As unconventional as he may be, he is an artist, his medium just happens to be murder. And recently The Artist has been keeping an especially close eye on the beautiful college girl studying at the coffee shop. His muse. Sweet Penelope. Can Davey find a way to overcome The Darkness and get back to his idealist life, or will The Darkness find a way to come out and complete his masterpiece?

The Dark Wet is the first collection of short stories by Jess Huon. Rich, lyrical and deeply felt, it explores the struggle towards a sense of self and belonging, expressed in three sequences of stories: that of Jed Harp, his lover Danny Hess, and his poet sister Alexandra; of Bell and Oliver, a couple moving between Melbourne and San Francisco; and of a young woman confronting religion and sex in a Christian community in India. Drawing on a rich range of settings, from the lush Top End of Australia, to the mountains of India, and vibrant urban centres, The Dark Wet is a brutally honest portrayal of lives grasping at fluidity and transgression, and the possibility of redemption and change.

And in order to succeed he must place the future of the entire human species at risk...
