Jawad, fils d'une famille chiite de Bagdad, est destiné par son père à exercer la même profession rituelle que lui, celle de laver et de préparer les morts avant leur enterrement. Lui veut devenir sculpteur, préférant célébrer la vie plutôt que la mort, mais la guerre contre les Américains brise ses rêves. ©Electre 2017

"Mahmoud Darwish is a literary rarity: at once critically acclaimed as one of the most important poets in the Arabic language, and beloved as the voice of his people. He is a living legend whose lyrics are sung by fieldworkers and schoolchildren. He has assimilated some of the world's oldest literary traditions at the same time that he has struggled to open new possibilities for poetry. This collection spans Darwish's entire career, nearly four decades, revealing an impressive range of expression and form. A splendid team of translators has collaborated with the poet on these new translations, which capture Darwish's distinctive voice and spirit. Fady Joudah's foreword, new to this edition, addresses Darwish's enduring legacy following his death in 2008"--Back cover.
