In Solidarity with Ashraf Fayadh

January 14, 2016 by Nora Lester Murad

Read about Ashraf Fayadh, Palestinian poet sentenced to death in Saudi Arabia here:

Newly Translated: Poems to Read for Ashraf Fayadh on January 14

In solidarity with Ashraf and all cultural workers and activists facing threats to their freedom to speak, I am joining the global reading of Ashraf’s poetry with “The Melancholy of Dough” translated by Tariq al-Haydar.
