Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In Surplus Skin, Ibrahim Abdelfattah performs a visceral autopsy of the modern poetic soul, peeling back the epidermis of the mundane to reveal the hemorrhaging silence beneath. This collection is a surgical deconstruction of the 'night' that has thickened into a suffocating, excess layer of flesh-a 'vast prison without walls' where time gains weight and compresses the chest of the city .Ibrahim Abdelfattah's voice operates within the phenomenology of alienation, where the self is a fluid, unstable construct, terrified that a name might stick to it permanently . He navigates a Cairo that is less a geography and more a 'capital of ice,' a landscape where the 'meekness of killers' allows War to sit casually on a balcony, smoking a cigarette while the world trembles . Here, the boundaries between the corporeal and the ethereal dissolve; memory is a 'coat heavy with mud' that one yearns to shed, and identity is merely a mask worn in the 'disguise room,' sustained by the 'K-particle of simile'.These poems are a manifesto for the 'ecstatic wanderers' and the 'poets who corrupted love,' offering a stark, unflinching look at a reality where endings are fair but brutal, and where the only salvation lies in the 'laughter etched onto the face of ruin'.
