Description

Engaging both the intriguing past and the vibrant present of an unfamiliar and ethically diverse place, the first half of this new collection of poems explores the mysterious sides of New York. The second half of this consideration focuses on the very different land of Northern Ireland, discussing its troubles, the dynamics of ruined communities, and the recent influx of immigrants. Elegiac and celebratory, lively and mordant, this compilation illustrates a complicated sense of the connections between time and place.

Description

How do we even begin to narrate the history of the world? Where do we start, and where do we end? Fireflies is Sagasti’s bold and original attempt to answer these questions. Roaming across time and geography, he lights on an eclectic array of characters and events that at first glance seem unrelated, and teases out their stories to reveal unexpected points of contact between them. Stanley Kubrick, Joseph Beuys, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Neil Armstrong, Ludwig Wittgenstein, the Beatles, Japanese poets, Brazilian priests, Russian cosmonauts and many more cross these pages, and Sagasti finds common threads that weave them together into a single narrative.The fireflies themselves perhaps provide the key to understanding this book. They become a metaphor for the resistance of certain luminous moments, certain twinkling fragments of history, to the passing of time. They remind us that events do not always simply disappear neatly into the darkness, but rather remain, floating in the air, lighting up the night sky indefinitely. Sagasti shows us that the present moment, like this novel, is a tapestry woven of a multiplicity of times.Using his unique, poetic and keenly observant style, Sagasti transforms the accidents of history into a single, lyrical constellation, and for the reader it is an extraordinary sight.

She is worried lest she should be the first one in the whole class to get periods or maybe the last one orwhat if she got her first period right in the middle of the class and bleed right through her pants and everyone saw itwhat if her pad someday fell out of her bag?
OMG! This was the day.
Mom, what if I get it in the class? she had expressed her deep most concern to her Mum one day.
If you get cramps in the class, tell the teacher you have a headache and ask to go to the nurses office.
And what am I to tell the nurse? Trisha had asked foolishly.
Tell the nurse the truth of-course, but you dont have to announce to the whole class that you have menstrual cramps.

Periods.
Acne.
Body-odour.
Unwanted hair.
Andmuch more.
Those are the biggies every girl in the class is wondering about.

Description

Seeking a new home where to feel safe, fireflies embark on a difficult journey and will learn that there is always a light at the end of the way. In the blink of an eye, the fireflies are forced to leave their field. Without a home, without food, and without a future, the fireflies made a decision. They packed their bags, and for the first time ever in the history of their species, they set off in search of the light at the end of the way. They all left together. Grandparents, children, parents … entire families fly together and undertake the journey guided by that sparkling light that shines beyond. But it’s a difficult journey, full of seemingly impossible obstacles, which only the love that binds the family together can overcome. This emotional tale of feelings and identity leads us through the darkness into the light of a better future.
