Abstract

"Tangerines Break Furious Like Goodnight" is a book-length collection of original poems that was produced during the ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people. This manuscript was written as the death toll of Palestinians has reached over 34,000, within the context of a university that refuses to divest from its ongoing ties to the Israeli regime through investments, study abroad programs and violent repression of student solidarity with Gaza. This collection explores the act of breaking up: with the people we love, with ourselves, with the world as it currently stands, with language itself. Free Palestine.
