The Other Side of Nowhere is a radical, psychedelic journal of the end- times, whose poems portray a world of intransigence, a world where the safety of words like place or home have started to unravel. This pamphlet finds the author of The Promised Land: Poems from Itinerant Life (Penguin, 2017) exploring the American West, from forgotten gold rush towns in Arizona to the lives of historical figures from the Golden State’s xenophobic history, allowing Naffis-Sahely to turn his wry worldly gaze on some of our era’s most pressing subjects.
