Award-winning poet Safia Elhillo reinvents the epic to explore Muslim girlhood and shame, the dangers of being a woman, and the myriad violences enacted and imagined against women’s bodies. Drawing from her own life and family histories, as well as cultural myths and news stories about honor killings and genital mutilation, she interlaces the everyday traumas of growing up a girl under patriarchy with magical realist imaginings of rebellion, autonomy, and power.

Орхан Памук – известный турецкий писатель, обладатель многочисленных национальных и международных премий, в числе которых Нобелевская премия по литературе за «поиск души своего меланхолического города». Душа города всегда обретается в его прошлом, возможно, поэтому талант Памука так блестяще проявляется в исторических романах, таких как «Имя мне – Красный» и «Белая крепость». Сюжет «Белой крепости», действие которого происходит в 17 веке, одновременно прост и загадочен, подобно древней арабской миниатюре: главный герой, молодой итальянец, попадает в плен к туркам, где становится рабом странного человека, одержимого познанием вселенной.

The poems in this small volume are often short, humorous, and reckless, like many of the poems by this author in Persian. Like this one: Who knows? / Maybe we have someone like Gandhi, / But he has not yet returned from Africa. It is not possible to comment definitively on the genre or atmosphere of the poems, but most of them wander between romantic-erotic and sociopolitical. A recent category without indigenous signs is heavily influenced by the historical confidence of the totalitarian and repressive rulers of Iran.

Every book is an invitation to a journey. Not all journeys are worth the time, though. This book, Ali, by Joshua Sabey and Ali Alsamar, offers a journey worth taking—actually many journeys, including stories from the Qur’an and the Bible, family lore (from two families), and ancient glimpses into the human struggle through another Iraq's adventures: Sinbad.
