<p><b>WINNER OF THE RSL ONDAATJE PRIZE</b></p><p><b>The third collection from the award-winning author of <i>After the Formalities</i>, tackling migration, identity and history.</b></p><p></p>What does it mean to have 'heritage'<i>,</i> and how do we perform or undo it?<p></p><p>In these daring and sonorous poems, Anaxagorou conducts a researched unpacking of two countries whose dividing lines of a colonial past are still visible and felt.</p><p>Uniquely engaged with the complexities of Cyprus and the diasporic experience, these poems map both an island's public history alongside a person's private reckoning. They offer a ferocious and uncompromising look towards the damaging historical structures that have led to now.</p><p>Fearless, intensely honest and hopeful, <i>Heritage Aesthetics</i> merges Anthony's gift for performance and his brilliant experimentation with form to create a vivid insistence to communicate a self in the world.</p>
