This is a hard one to review. I had to read the poems in small doses because it was utterly emotionally devastating, the interview part at the end was really interesting too (although also often quite heartbreaking). It's not just heartbreak though, there's beauty in there too, such as when Abu Toha speaks about how different the meaning of Sha'ir (poet) is in Arabic.

This isn't strictly speaking a memoir, but I honestly don't feel like it's the kind of book I can put a star rating on.
