raveller reviewed Forest of Noise by Mosab Abu Toha
Grief when there's not a moment of peace
5 stars
This book is full of poems about life in Palestine, longing for home, and grief when there's no moment to grieve because the cruelty keeps expanding and sucking in more and more of what you love. The poems are funerals interrupted mid sentence by bulldozers ripping up the grave on livestreams.
