The Hajar Book of Rage ignites the first spark in the elements anthology series, harnessing the primordial force of fire as a fury that destroys and transforms. Bringing together fiction, poetry and essays by writers of colour, this Fire-themed collection delves into the fierce, animating power of rage as a catalyst for revolutionary change.
Here, rage teaches, revealing what we’re fighting against and what we’re fighting for. It mobilises us into action, rouses our innermost ideals and refuses to let us compromise. And it is unruly and all-consuming—a blaze that resists containment.
Earnest, full-hearted and probing, this is a searing tribute to the fires of anger that fuel our resistance.
The Hajar Book of Rage is the first volume in elements, a series by Hajar Press on the politically transformative power of Fire, Earth, Water and Air.

‘This book offers purpose and focus: a call to arms … a place where historical injustice and present-day horrors sit side by side, and where the personal meets the universal. With other elements to follow, The Hajar Book of Rage sets the bar high.’ — The Skinny
