First Edition Signed
First edition of the first major career-spanning collection of the poems of Adonis, widely acknowledged as the most important poet working in Arabic. Octavo, original boards. Boldly signed and dated in the year of publication by Adonis on the title page. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Translated by Khaled Mattawa. Born in Syria in 1930, Adonis is one of the most celebrated poets of the Arabic-speaking world. His poems have earned international acclaim, and his influence on Arabic literature has been likened to that of T. S. Eliotâs on English-language verse. This volume serves as the first comprehensive survey of Adonisâs work, allowing English readers to admire the arc of a remarkable literary career through the labors of the poetâs own handpicked translator, Khaled Mattawa. Experimental in form and prophetic in tone, Adonisâs poetry sings exultantly of both the sweet promise of eros and the lingering problems of the self. Steeped in the anguish of exile and the uncertainty of existence, Adonis demonstrates the poetâs profound affection for Arabic and European lyrical traditions even as his poems work to destabilize those very aesthetic and moral sensibilities. This collection positions the work of Adonis within the pantheon of the great poets of exile, including CÃ sar Vallejo, Joseph Brodsky, and Paul Celan, providing for English readers the most complete vision yet of the work of the man whom the cultural critic Edward Said called âtodayâs most daring and provocative Arab poet.â.

First Edition Signed
First edition of the poet's first book to be translated into English. Octavo, original red cloth. Inscribed by both the poet Adonis and by the translator, Samuel Hazo. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Modernist novelist Adonis has won the 2007 Bjørnson Prize and the 2011 Goethe Prize. The Blood of Adonis continues Adonis' pioneering of modern Arabic poetry. The poet is often seen as a rebel, an iconoclast who follows his own rules who said "Arabic poetry is not the monolith this dominant critical view suggests, but is pluralistic, sometimes to the point of self-contradiction.".
