Summary "Syrian poet Maram Al-Massri writes of love and the place of Arab women in the modern age. "I am this mix between the submissive and rebellious woman," she writes, "my freedom is so difficult and so desired." Her poems - presented here in a bilingual format - invoke the intoxicating power of seduction and the intensity of lust, the security of relationships and the muffled explosions of emotion."--Jacket.
