And of course, a book signing!Maybe even Arak ;)About the book, in the words of our publisher, Patty Paine:"A fearless and luminous collection, Dark Star Requiem is a requiem for the living; a book that mourns and celebrates in equal measure. Shoufani, a Palestinian American poet and filmmaker, writes with breathtaking precision about exile, inheritance, desire, and the endurance of art. The poems speak to displacement and devotion, to the ache of remembering and the necessity of forgetting. They move with cinematic scope and visceral detail, carrying us from the streets of Beirut and Damascus to the subways of London and New York. They ask: What does it mean to love amid ruin? How do we speak when the world falls silent? Each poem becomes an act of witness and resistance, a reclamation of the body and the land. In Shoufani’s hands, language becomes a landscape of resistance.This collection speaks directly to our moment of despair and insists that beauty, however fragile, still matters. In lush and exacting language, Dark Star Requiem explores how art endures when everything else is gone. It reminds us that the work of poetry is not only to mourn but to build something new in the ruins."Dark Star Requiem will be available for sale at the launch. Shukran.
