In describing our situation

... We preferred to publish this selected collection of articles because reality confirms it with its repeated scandal day after day; and with its Arab insistence in particular, that its future - in the foreseeable future - be a picture of this written work about its past, as if it inherits disappointment, disappointment, and ruin, ruin, and martyr, martyr, and the soul that does not break - in the Palestinian depth - its sister who does not break; it is a writing confirmed by the reward of the distant future on its pain. What is said here is the single moan in the gust of multiple tragedy. Author: Mahmoud Darwish Number of pages: 249
