The essays included in this volume cover Mattawa's approach toward translating contemporary and classical Arabic poetry, the personal and international politics of poetry, and the difficulty of representing one's own family history in one's own writing. The concluding piece, \"Poems and Days (A Reader's Memoir),\" presents his deep engagement with the work of other poets during his formative years as a writer\"--"]
