Calligraphies by Marilyn Hacker
This publication is the latest and most thoroughly updated regional edition of the SDG7 regional tracking report which addresses access to sustainable and modern energy for all. This report aims to build capacity in the Arab region, through access to information, with the aim of strengthening proactive policy to improve energy security, enhance resilience in the face of climate change and mainstream sustainable development goals into regional and national policy processes. This report tracks progress in SDG7 at the Arab regional and country levels through the three main indicators of energy access, energy efficiency and renewable energy. It also traces the interlinkages between progress in SDG7 and SDG13 on climate change.
"A book of morally infused witness for our troubled times" -- Lawrence Joseph, author of A Certain Clarity
"[Marilyn] Hacker examines love, war, resistance, literature, memories, and aging.… [A] poetic journey not to be missed." -- Library Journal, starred review
"These varied and powerful poems highlight the healing that resides in poetic collaboration and friendship across borders." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Marilyn Hacker is one of our great translators of the human experience." -- Jessica Greenbaum, author of Spilled and Gone
"In Calligraphies, Marilyn Hacker further cements her position as one of our greatest contemporary masters of poetic form. Elegant and yet homespun, cosmopolitan yet grounded, Hacker's poems (in the shapes of sonnets, tankas, ghazals) document and sing the lives of exiles, her friends from Beirut to Paris and beyond. Thriving on what Edward Said called 'late style,' that period of an artist's practice where they face the end, Hacker has become a poet not only for her (and our) twilight age, but for the ages." -- Philip Metres, author of Shrapnel Maps
