Publisher's Synopsis

Mahmud Darwish, Samih al-Qasim and Adonis are amongst the leading poets in the Arab world today. Victims of a Map presents some of their finest work in translation, alongside the original Arabic, including thirteen poems by Darwish never before published - in English or Arabic - and a long work by Adonis written during the 1982 siege of Beirut, also published here for the first time.

The Times "Still issuing titles that stimulate and challenge - books with editorial audacity" Independent Saqi Books is an independent publishing house of quality general interest and academic books on North Africa and the Middle East. Founded in 1983 in London, Saqi's links with cutting edge and authoritative voices have led to a rigorous reassessment of Arab cultural heritage.
