"In this collection, which is new to the entire Arab poetic scene, Mahmoud Darwish goes towards biography: the biography of place when geography contains it so that history may speak through it, and the biography of the locations of place when they turn into stations for the body and signs for the soul, and thus create - thus - a unique epic form of a dense autobiography that moves in space, and scans time from the height of a bird's eye, then condenses its elements into a journey of return towards a pole of creator, participant and guarantor who is a tragic human being, but... a poet with a cloud in his hand. And one can recall, here specifically, what Edward Said wrote about Mahmoud Darwish: ((Poetry for Darwish is not limited to providing a tool to reach an extraordinary vision, or to a universe far removed from a known system, but rather it is a difficult fusion of poetry and collective memory, and the pressure of each on the other))
