I write these words / J'ecris ces mots

Poetry. Middle Eastern Studies. Translated from the French by Christine Tipper. Bilingual edition. An elegant volume that examines the world(s) of a Tunisian-born Toronto woman, and women's universal struggle to find their place. Gentle, probing verses beguile with their beauty and challenge with their meaning as they explore the roles woman play in diverse societies and cultures. Sometimes the reader travels in the present, sometimes in the past, but always into the world of a woman and poet who is pulled in many directions.
