Reviews / Votes
`The most intellectually stimulating of several Arab books of unique literary distinction in fine translations ... Translated with uncommon intelligence ... As important a cultural manifesto as any written today.' Edward Said, Independent on Sunday; `Adonis's only prose work available in English is this book. The loss is ours and it is massive, for Adonis is a writer like Neruda or Marquez.' Geoff Dyer, Independent; `Introduces the reader to a new way of interpreting all poetry, and to many marvellous words that do not have an English equivalent.' Arts LetterMore details
