Editorial Reviews
Voice Literary Supplement
"A disturbing and beautifully written account of the 1982 Israeli invasion specifically of August 6th, when land, sea, and air bombardment was at its most intense. It is not a memoir in the ordinary sense, written with the leisurely distance of time, but the embodiment of an agony in which time itself is the subject of meditation." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

The Guardian Review (UK)
"Extraordinary prose poems translated from Arabic, written out of the siege of Beirut 20 years ago." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
