5.0 out of 5 stars
Superbly crafted and translated bilingual verses,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The World's Embrace: Selected Poems (Paperback)
The World's Embrace presents selected poems by critically acclaimed North African writer Abdellatif Laabi, who was imprisoned for seven years in the 1970s due to his writings and his political beliefs. Presented both in their original French and in English translation, these superbly crafted and translated bilingual verses cry out against the tortures humanity inflicts on itself, and serves as as an ever timely warning against the depths to which society can sink. "Oh rains / if you were / the tears of the sky / I would begin to believe"
