Edited by George Abraham and Noor Hindi, this anthology gathers the voices of Palestinian poets in grief, defiance, and resistance. Divided into ten sections, the themes include ecopoetics, love poems, protest poetry, and ars poetica. Intergenerational, multilingual, and transnational voices fill the pages with a long list of contributors: Heba Abu Nada, Refaat Alareer, Hala Alyan, Mahmoud Darwish, Mohammed El-Kurd, Fady Joudah, A. D. Lauren-Abunassar, Naomi Shihab Nye, and Lena Khalaf Tuffaha, among others. “From this project’s inception, we knew it would require many years of labor, spent both researching our literary pasts and holding the words of our living artists with the care they deserve,” write the editors in the introduction. “Amidst times we can only describe as catastrophic, the only way forward is a practice of mutual care, for each other, our community, our planet.”
