Wrong Winds

Writing during the first months of Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza, Palestinian-American poet Ahmad Almallah traverses European cities, Almallah encounters the impossibility of being a Palestinian, left alone in a world full of sympathizers and enemies. The poems in Wrong Winds discover the world again and form an impossible dialogue with the dead and dying.

Ahmad Almallah's third collection considers the impossible task of being a Palestinian in the world today.
When genocide is the question, can the answer be anything but wrong? In Wrong Winds, written during the first months of Israel's genocidal assault on Gaza, Palestinian-American poet Ahmad Almallah converses with the screams echoing throughout the West. Traversing European cities, Almallah encounters the impossibility of being a Palestinian, left alone in a world full of sympathizers and enemies. Through a continuous unsettling of words and places, considering the broken voices of Western poetry (Eliot, Lorca, Celan among others), the poems in Wrong Winds discover the world again and form an impossible dialogue with the dead and dying.
