Nimah Nawwab’s remarkable volume of poetry is must-reading for its artistic merits as well as its relevance and timeliness. John Duke Anthony, President, National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations Nawwab is among a breed apart in this regard, and not only for being adept at holding hands across both ends of a cultural divide, but in her life and in her writings for personifying so closely much that can be likened unto the bridge itself. Much is to be said for those few like her whose prose and poetry span an otherwise unbridgeable chasm in the understanding of other countries and their people's longings and emotions. A daughter of Arabia, she writes with a knowledge and passion that is as deep and telling of her attachment to family and ancestral origins as she does of her understanding of the world and its ways beyond her country's shores.
In this book of verse and searing insights, Nimah Ismail Nawwab shares her uncanny gift for linking disparate peoples and cultures through her poems of the heart.
With a clear voice she precisely conveys remarkable insights into Saudi Arabia and the world beyond that entwines an ancient society.
A new poetry volume by Nimah Ismail Nawwab.
