The first English translation of recent poetry by the late Mahmoud Darwish, the most important Palestinian contemporary poet.
Almond Blossoms and Beyond is one of the last collections of poetry that Mahmoud Darwish left to the world. Composed of brief lyric poems and the magnificent, sustained Exile cycle, Almond Blossoms holds an important place in Darwish's unparalleled oeuvre. It distills his late style, in which, though the specter of death looms and weddings turn to funerals, he threads the pulses and fragilities and beauties of life into the lines of his poems. 

Mahmoud Darwish was a Palestinian poet and author who was regarded as Palestine's national poet
