The poem uses refrains of suffocation, rubble, and migratory bird patterns to address the realities of forced displacement, economic restrictions, and surveillance technology that Palestinians face both within Palestine and across the diaspora. Searing and fierce, tender and pleading, \u003cem\u003erock flight\u003c\/em\u003e invites the reader to embark on an exploration of space while limited by the box-like confines of the page. Through the whole, Hourani moves between poetry and prose, historical events and meditations on language, Fluxus-like instructions and interactions with friends, strangers, and family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs incantatory and stirring as Inger Christensen's \u003cem\u003ealphabet\u003c\/em\u003e or Ra?l Zurita's \u003cem\u003eInri\u003c\/em\u003e, rock flight adapts themes of displacement and refusal into an interactive reading experience where the book becomes an object in flux.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.32 x 8.02 x 5.34 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 08, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43159306731583,"sku":"9780811238854","price":20.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/75qwjJRJ669780811238854.webp?v=1776997357","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/rock-flight-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
