In this sumptuous, expansive collection, selections from across the entire career of Mahmoud Darwish, renderer of worlds, are gathered beneath one roof. This volume also features first-time translations of some of the Palestine national poet's most significant works in English.
Darwish, whose life in exile spanned from the Galilee to Paris to Beirut to Cairo to his final destination, Houston, created poetry of intense beauty and resonance, and in his verses, everyone who has ever been dispossessed finds a voice and a home. In his poetry, the displaced find a home. Collected here is the mark of a master, a range of expression that proceeds from a Palestinian voice, both raging and passionate, and an indomitably resistant human spirit: love poems, lyrics, observations of nature, epically structured myths, glimpses of life under siege and occupation, and ultimately of a life looking beyond this Earth, at the stars. Everyman's Library's Pocket Poets are pocket-sized hardcovers that feature acid-free cream-colored paper bound in a full-cloth case with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, a silk ribbon marker, a European-style half-round spine, and a full-color illustrated jacket."Sinopsis" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
