Wreckage is really a remarkable piece of work. In the foreground is a caper story; in the background, a poetically expressed, apocalyptic history of Liverpool.”—Daily Telegraph

"Written chiefly from time living in the Alaskan heartland, the frontier of elements, weather, and survival figure prominently in these poems. This is a collection of poetry that transcends its pages." Harvard Review
product image By Joanna Kilmartin and Anouar Benmalek
"I was swept along by the beautifully constructed story of Anna and Nasreddine, whose love survives a half century of war and terror in post-colonial Algeria. Benmalek is a master of the poetics of separation." —Alice Kaplan
