Never Mind: Twenty Poems And A Story

Taha Muhammad Ali is one of the leading poets on the contemporary Palestinian literary scene. He writes in a forceful, direct style, with disarming humor and unflinching, at times, painful, honesty -- the poetry's apparent simplicity and homespun truths concealing the subtle grafting of classical Arabic and colloquial forms of expression. NEVER MIND is the poet's first collection in English. Translated by Peter Cole and Gabriel Levin.
