Description
Mahmoud Darwish was one of the most acclaimed contemporary poets in the Arab world, and is often cited as the poetic voice of the Palestinian people. During the tumultuous summer of 2006, Darwish was in Ramallah. He recorded his observations and feelings in this diary as Israel attacked Gaza and Lebanon. In A River Dies of Thirst, Darwish writes of love, loss, and the pain of exile in bittersweet poems leavened with hope and joy.
