À propos de ce produit

Product Information

One of the most transcendent poets of his generation, Darwish composed this remarkable elegy at the apex of his creativity, but with the full knowledge that his death was imminent. Thinking it might be his final work, he summoned all his poetic genius to create a luminous work that defies categorization. In stunning language, Darwish's self-elegy inhabits a rare space where opposites bleed and blend into each other. Prose and poetry, life and death, home and exile are all sung by the poet and his other. On the threshold of im/mortality, the poet looks back at his own existence, intertwined with that of his people. Through these lyrical meditations on love, longing, Palestine, history, friendship, family, and the ongoing conversation between life and death, the poet bids himself and his readers a poignant farewell.

Reviews
A major poet, near death, meditating in lyric prose on all that he has lost: freedom, homeland, childhood, love. In this moving translation, Sinan Antoon generously invites the English-speaking reader into the immensity-and metaphysical subtlety-of Darwish's grief. -Richard Sieburth The truest of poets... In the Presence of Absence is a book possessed of a remarkable and enduring beauty. -Chuck Wachtel Beautiful... inescapably lyrical. -Bookslut Mahmoud Darwish [is] perhaps the foremost Palestinian poet of last century. -Tablet There are two maps of Palestine that politicians will never manage to forfeit: the one kept in the memories of Palestinian refugees, and that which is drawn by Darwish's poetry. -Anton Shammas Then came silence. Mahmoud Darwish began to read. We did not know a word of Arabic, but we heard his voice reach out and sink deep down to pluck the strings of the Palestinian soul. It was a magical night in Ramallah, the magician, Mahmoud Darwish, whose spell was cast the way it has been through ages--simply by being that elusive archetype, much envied and feared by power-a poet at ease with, because attuned to, his own people. -Wole Soyinka Mahmoud Darwish is one of the greatest poets of our time. In his poetry Palestine becomes the map of the human soul. -Elias Khoury Darwish is the premier poetic voice of the Palestinian people... lyrical, imagistic, plaintive, haunting, always passionate, and elegant--and never anything less than free-what he would dream for all his people. -Naomi Shihab Nye [A] unique achievement... It offers costly wisdoms from a life journey, rendered in the opaque lyricism of Darwish's poetry...His is the voice of dispossessed Palestine but its longings, including sheer lust, are universal. This book overflows with resonant lines and questions... It is a book for life. -The Independent, A major poet, near death, meditating in lyric prose on all that he has lost: freedom, homeland, childhood, love.

It is a book for life. --The Independent, "Darwish is to be read with urgency, in the night, when nothing else moves but his lines." -- The Village Voice "Darwish is the premier poetic voice of the Palestinian people . . . lyrical, imagistic, plaintive, haunting, always passionate, and elegant--and never anything less than free--what he would dream for all his people." -- Naomi Shihab Nye "Mahmoud Darwish is one of the greatest poets of our time.

His poetry is polyphonic, containing the voices of lovers, enemies, parents, former selves. The poet's own identity often gently disintegrates or splits...His humanity, (Darwish) argued, was safeguarded by acknowledging the humanity of his enemy. -- New York Review of Books A major poet, near death, meditating in lyric prose on all that he has lost: freedom, homeland, childhood, love.
