I don’t want this poem to end, by Mahmoud Darwish, is a Arabic poetry collection from Palestine, translated by Mohammad Shaheen, published by Interlink in 2017. It is a late Darwish work that turns continuation itself into lyric desire, as though the poem were a way of postponing disappearance. There is enough factual grounding here to place the book, but the real test is readerly. Does the poem leave an image behind; does it change the room; does it ask the tongue to behave differently for a moment? This collection earns its place because it keeps that possibility open. That small hesitation matters, because poetry often begins where summary stops being enough.

If you’d like to see international poetry continue and gain traction, consider requesting this work from your local library, or purchasing it from places like Open Books (a poetry only bookstore), Asterism Books (an independent press distributor), or bookshop.org to connect you with your local bookstores.
