Publisher's Synopsis
Poetry. ARAB ON RADAR is Angele Ellis' first book of poetry. She was a prizewinner in the 2007 RAWI Competition for Creative Prose for "Desert Storms," an excerpt of a novel in progress. ARAB ON RADAR was written in response to a post-9/11 world. This first book of poetry reclaims the author's Arab-American identity, and reaffirms the power of imagination in the wake of political and personal crisis. Her poetry has been published in Mizna and Pittsburgh City Paper, and is forthcoming in Grasslimb and Voices from the Attic, Volume XIV (The Carlow University Press). Angele also is co-author of the diversity workbook Dealing With Differences (Corwin Press). Angele Ellis has been named as a recipient of a 2008 Individual Creative Artist Fellowship by the Pennsylvania Arts Council.
