Description - Nothing More To Lose by Najwan Darwish
Here translated for the first time into English are a collection of poems by the young Palestinian poet Najwan Darwish. Already translated into 10 other languages, Darwish is one of the most prominent young Arab literary voices, and his poetry is based in the history, geography, politics, and religion of his homeland, as well as in universal themes that cross boundaries, and expresses these themes, local and common to all.
Nothing More to Lose is the first collection of poems by Palestinian poet Najwan Darwish to appear in English. Hailed across the Arab world and beyond, Darwish's poetry walks the razor's edge between despair and resistance, between dark humor and harsh political realities. With incisive imagery and passionate lyricism, Darwish confronts themes of equality and justice while offering a radical, more inclusive, rewriting of what it means to be both Arab and Palestinian living in Jerusalem, his birthplace.
This English-only edition does not include the poems in their original language.
