Product Description

Review

"Extraordinary prose poems translated from Arabic, written out of the siege of Beirut 20 years ago."--"The Guardian Review (UK)

Product Description

This sequence of prose poems uses the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon and the shelling of Beirut as their setting. The author recreates the sights and sounds of a city under terrible siege, and at the same time journeys into personal and collective memories.
