Beskrivning
A collection of previously published poems by renowned National Book Award-winning Chamoru poet Craig Santos Perez. The seventh book from award-winning Chamoru author Craig Santos Perez, Call This Mutiny brings together poems that were originally published in journals and anthologies from 2008 to 2023. Throughout these selected poems, Perez offers critical explorations of native cultures, decolonial politics, colonial histories, and the entangled ecologies of his homeland of Guam, his current home of Hawaiʻi, and the larger Pacific region in relation to the Global South and the Indigenous Fourth World. Perez’s poetry draws on the power of storytelling to share Indigenous history and culture and to offer healing from the trauma of colonialism and injustice. As he writes, “If we can write the ocean, we will never be silenced.”

Recensioner i media

"In his seventh book of poetry, celebrated Chamoru poet Perez turns his gaze at his island of Guam, and abroad, and back again. Perez employs a variety of forms, including an anagram that converts a rising 'ocean' into a 'canoe' that saves lives, and an abecedarian titled 'ECL (English as a Colonial Language),' which alphabetizes a concise history of Guam's colonization. . . . Another engaging, timely, and insightful collection from a deeply talented poet."
