- Book Synopsis
- In this debut collection by Terrence Arjoon, various characters people the text, from historical personages to actors in hastily paper-mache'd masks, each peeking onto stage from the wings. Composed of partial translations from Gérard de Nerval, pastoral pastiches, slant rhymes, off-sonnets, and malapropisms, The Disinherited inhabits a world spanning the olive groves of old Europe to spills of ink in the renegade printing studios of New York, as Arjoon and his merry wanderers take a meandering stroll through diaspora and exile, the Romantic and surreal, reaching towards something richer, denser, and stranger.
