Victims of a Map

Mahmud Darwish, Samih al-Qasim and Adonis are amongst the leading poets in the Arab world today. Victims of a Map presents some of their finest work in translation, alongside the original Arabic, including thirteen poems by Darwish never before published — in English or Arabic — and a long work by Adonis written during the 1982 siege of Beirut, also published here for the first time.
