Spanning a century of upheaval and endurance, The Palestinian Wedding brings together twenty-one major poets in a powerful bilingual anthology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the charged lyricism of Tawfiq Zayyad to the expansive imagery of Walid al-Halis; from the romantic cadences of Salma al-Jayyusi to the profound rootedness of Mahmoud Darwish, these poems chart the emotional and political landscape of modern Palestine. Together, they reveal a tradition in which love of land, grief, defiance and hope are inseparable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEdited and introduced by the eminent scholar A.M. Elmessiri, the collection is arranged around six central themes – revolution, war, elegy, belonging, resistance and steadfastness – offering readers both an essential literary archive and a vital lens on Palestinian cultural history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elmessiri, A.M.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56548458135938,"sku":"9781849251167","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/2180\/9347\/files\/9781849251167.jpg?v=1775909095","url":"https:\/\/mountfloridabooks.com\/products\/9781849251167","provider":"Mount Florida Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
