  • Glaring Through Oblivion är en poesibok skriven av System of a Downs sångare Serj Tankian. Den lanserades först den 22 mars 2011 via HarperCollins Publishers. Som illustratör står Roger Kupelian och omslaget är, precis som på Tankians föregående poesibok Cool Gardens, gjort av Sako Shahinian. Boken börjar med en prosa över hur Tankian kände sig efter 11 september-attackerna och hur han var rädd för att säga vad han tyckte och tänkte om den amerikanska regeringen eftersom han kände sig hotad; System of a Down hade nämligen bara en vecka innan attackerna släppt sitt genombrottsalbum Toxicity i USA. Prosan slutar med att Tankian lovar att aldrig låta sig själv censureras igen och efterföljs av femtio dikter, dock är några av dem enbart en mening långa i form av en låttextsrad. (sv)

  • Glaring Through Oblivion is a 2011 book of poetry written by Serj Tankian, the Armenian-American lead singer of the band System of a Down. It is his second book of poetry, after Cool Gardens (2002). Glaring Through Oblivion was published by HarperCollins Publishers and printed in China, and released on March 22, 2011. The book begins with a prose essay, written several days after the September 11 attacks, about how Tankian feared to speak his opinions because of threats against him and his band, after he had written an essay two days after the attacks in which he blamed United States foreign policy for terrorism. The prose ends with Serj promising "I, myself, have vowed to never ever again hold my tongue." Some of the poems contain lyrics that ended up in some of his songs, although sometimes a bit modified. Some poems consist of only one line and do not have a title. The last poem in the book, "Borders", actually was to become a whole song on his second album Imperfect Harmonies; the song "Borders Are..." contains elements of that poem as well as from several poems from cool gardens.
