SUMMARY:Yasmeen Hanoosh & Lydia Kiesling at Powell's
DESCRIPTION:Portland friends: join us for a conversation around Elias Khoury’s first novel\, On the Relations of the Circle\, with translator Yasmeen Hanoosh and Lydia Kiesling. This rreading\, discussion\, and signing will take place at the wonderful Powell’s City of Books. 7pm! \n“Despite Elias Khoury’s known wizardry as one of the great contemporary narrators\, his referential bedrock can always be found in the full corpus of Arabic poetry\, texts he knew intimately. Yasmeen Hanoosh’s utterly lucid rendering of his first novel finally squares the circle of Khoury’s magnificent achievement. Deeply enmeshed in his own language and culture\, he embraced the world fully\, with all its pain\, suffering\, and wonder\, while never ceasing to demonstrate that true human dignity emerges from active resistance to all forms of oppression.” — Ammiel Alcalay
