ISBN-13: 978-1-946448-36-1, ISBN: 1-946448-36-2

The question’s not stated, only implied.” In 2013, the Italian government implemented Mare Nostrum, an operation intended to limit immigration from Africa and the Middle East to European countries.

Tocqueville

ISBN-13: 978-1-936970-61-2, ISBN: 1-936970-61-9

"“When I first read Khaled Mattawa’s Tocqueville some years ago, it rewired my brain and pummeled my heart. A daring meditation on what it means to be a poet and a citizen at the center of American empire, Tocqueville was an astonishing departure from Mattawa’s previous lyrically driven work, declaring that it no longer suffices to sing— even to sing of dark times, as Bertolt Brecht proposed. Reading these poems today, in this timely sec ..."

"In his masterful fourth collection, Khaled Mattawa is concerned, above all, with the ramifications of a new global culture that most American poets have thus far ignored and neglected, partly out of incomprehension, partly out of fear. By setting himself against such timidity, Mattawa offers his most sustained and experimental reckoning with matters of cultural and social witness. TOCQUEVILLE is part personal lyric, part jeremi ..."

""Fareedah — my ... his mother." Without looking at her, Mahmoud described that day his first wife had succumbed to the cancer that "ate up her insides." He spoke the entire time in a level voice that gradually dropped with each additional detail he disclosed to Shireen.

Paperback, 140 Pages, Published 2008 by Sheep Meadow Press

She shows us how love exists against itself, how the human heart is often in conflict with its own nature, and how this imperfect state survives its own imperfections and rises to something resembling joy. Khaled Mattawa's translation should not only be commended on its fidelity, but its exceptional talent and sensitivity. He has once more co ..."
