## Description

"I wrote poetry before I wrote anything else," says Susan Abulhawa, esteemed Palestinian-American author and social activist, in the introduction to her first book of poems, My Voice Sought the Wind. This new work followed her highly acclaimed novel, Mornings in Jenin, which has been translated into 32 languages since it was published in 2010.My Voice Sought the Wind represents five years of Abulhawa's best poems on the timeless themes of love, loss, identity, and family, brought to life through her vivid observations and intimate personal reflections. She writes from her own experience, with a style that is romantic, but tinged with disillusionment, often a bit sad and always introspective.

Review: I loved this collection - I loved this collection. I saw the poet reading her work on video and was so moved by the elegiac passion in her voice. She speaks from the heart and to the heart, but with sharp political analysis informing her thoughts. great.
Review: Intensely Beautiful and Beautifully Intense - My Voice Sought the Wind by Susan Abulhawa is beautifully intense and intensely beautiful in its honesty and expression. The poems often seem simple at first glance but contain quite a bit of depth, often in only a few lines. Abulhawa expresses her experiences and her observations with an openness that is touching and engaging. Within her poems lies the humanity that lives inside all of us and reminds us all that we can find more in common than we think if we just stop to see each other. I thoroughly enjoyed My Voice Sought the Wind and was a little sad when I got to the end because there wasn't more to read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book of poetry about the Palestinian experience
*by R***N on 9 August 2016*

Excellent book of poetry about the Palestinian experience: suffering at the hands of the Israeli 40 year OCCUPATION and military treatment of children,, workers, their homes and land. A must for reading, meditating and empathy for a suffering people!.
