Nothing More to Lose, by Najwan Darwish, is a Arabic poetry collection from Palestine, translated by Kareem James Abu-Zeid, published by New York Review of Books, Incorporated, The in 2014. It is a Palestinian collection that begins from extremity and keeps finding lyric motion after the apparent end of possession. I would not approach it as a book that needs to be solved before it can begin working. Start with the title, the pressure of the translated line, and the feeling of a voice making room for itself in English. The value here is not just metadata or representation, but the chance to let one poet’s particular difficulty create its own weather.

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.
