A selection of the exquisite, passionate verse of the Palestinian poet Najwan Darwish, superbly translated into English

"A lush bouquet of essential poems from one of our species' most urgent living poets. These are poems of testimony, of presence and the persistence of joy."--Kaveh Akbar, author of Martyr!

Born in Jerusalem in 1978, Najwan Darwish is one of the most beloved poets of the Arabic-speaking world. In this definitive collection, which draws from five published volumes as well as new unpublished work, award-winning translator Kareem James Abu-Zeid brings to English-language readers a sweeping trove of Darwish's most powerful and urgent poetry of the last decade.

In spare lyric verse, Darwish testifies to the brutal and intimate traumas of war, the anguished fatigue of waking up each morning in an occupied land, and the immeasurable toll of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. While anchored in the geography of Palestine, his poetry also explores the rich artistic inheritance of the Arabic-speaking world, moving between regions, landscapes, and eras, from the glories of medieval Granada to the rippling shores of contemporary Haifa. In dialogue with poets, philosophers, and seekers from many different traditions, Darwish's verse, translated by Kareem James Abu-Zeid, pulses with spiritual longing and a sense of battered, disoriented wonder--a witness to both the atrocities we visit upon one another and the miracle that we are here at all.

No One Will Know You Tomorrow is a tribute to the indomitability of the human spirit: its sensitive attunement to beauty and its endurance in the face of unspeakable tragedy.
