This is one of the most intimate and evocative collections by the celebrated Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish. In this poetic masterpiece, Darwish weaves together themes of love, loss, identity, and exile, using the figure of "Rita" as both a personal muse and a symbol of unattainable love amidst conflict. The poems move gracefully between tenderness and pain, between memory and resistance, reflecting Darwish’s lyrical genius and his deep longing for both the beloved and the homeland. Through his rich imagery and musical language, Darwish transforms personal emotion into universal truth, creating a timeless dialogue between the heart and history. This book stands as a testament to his ability to merge the political with the profoundly personal in a voice that resonates far beyond borders.
