Customs Was It for This 'roaring through this project is

'roaring through this project is an embodied feeling of black study

voor kenners een nieuwe kijk op de oude canon

ruim honderd jaar na het verschijnen in 1907 en 1908

in which thoughts touch us ‘like soft rain’

waardoor diepte en schoonheid van dit grootse werk optimaal tot hun recht komen

Customs Was It for This 'roaring through this project isSolmaz Sharif In Customs, Solmaz Sharif examines what it means to exist in the nowhere of the arrivals terminal, a continual series of checkpoints, officers, searches, and questionings that become a relentless experience of America. With resignation and austerity, these poems trace a pointed indoctrination to the customs of the nation state and the English language, and the realities they impose upon the imagination, the paces they put us through.
