Více o knize

Through haunting poetry, the author reflects on the ruins of Baghdad, a city scarred by the Iran-Iraq War and the Gulf War, as well as the US invasion. Drawing from pre-modern Arabic traditions, the poems confront the pervasive violence and death that haunt his homeland. Nature serves as a contrasting solace, with flowers and butterflies symbolizing beauty amidst devastation. Composed in Arabic and translated by the poet, this collection offers a profound meditation on the impacts of war on humanity and the environment.
