Nothing More to Lose
Najwan Darwish
Translated from Arabic by Kareem James Abu-Zeid
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.
