From award-winning poet, Yass Assaidi
Premonition News Flash by Yass Assaidi is a powerful poetry collection exploring oppression, violence, love, and existential turmoil with vivid imagery and emotional depth. In a lyrical yet raw voice, Assaidi delves into the dynamics of victims and oppressors, personal and political betrayal, and haunting premonitions. Divided into three sections—on killers and the killed, a lover’s anguish, and an orphaned father's sorrow—the poems blur personal grief with collective struggle. Winner of the 2024 Bait Al-Ghasham DarArab International Translation Prize (Authors' Category), the work, translated by Mbarek Sryfi, captures the raw edge of contemporary Arab identity.
- This collection captures the human condition in all its contrasts, blending aesthetic allure with psychological depth. Through vivid imagery, it explores victims and perpetrators, joy and sorrow, in an intimate and masterfully crafted poetic form.
