Description

Beautifully rendered poems from across the Arabic-speaking world. This bilingual collection explores everyday life's agonies and delights, revealing the need to find meaning in the specific and deeply personal. Featuring work by Iman Mersal, Samir Abu Hawwash, Ines Abassi, Fadhil al-Azzawi, and others, these poems offer a unique glimpse into contemporary voices from across the Arabic-speaking world. Beautifully translated into English, they are presented alongside their Arabic originals in a vibrant snapshot of our present moment. The Calico series, published biannually by Two Lines Press, captures vanguard works of translated literature in stylish, collectible editions. This second book in the series introduces readers to previously underrepresented voices from across the Arabic-speaking world.
