"Alone, like a verse from a lyric with no beginning and no end. Alone, like the cry of a heart in the wilderness." —Mahmoud Darwish, from Memory for Forgetfulness: August, Beirut, 1982 (tr. Ibrahim Muhawi)

“The erotic element in the book, which metaphorically equates love and death is a necessary counterpart to mortality that, as we have seen, also generates metaphors for the activities of writing and reading: “The obscure heaps up on the obscure, rubs against itself, and ignited into clarity.” To spark this clarity, the text characteristically places the reader at a meeting point, a point of reversal, a juxtaposition, whether of two segments of the text or two (or more) perspectives. For example, in the first two sentences of the book the discourse shifts from direct statement to dialogue (I have indicated these shifts with italics). Immediately thereafter comes a reversal of ordinary assumptions about birth, love, life and death: “Because you woke up when you stirred in my belly. I knew then I was your coffin.” To be born is to die. Memory is for forgetfulness, it exists to be forgotten.”

Ibrahim Muhawi’s introduction to Memory for forgetfulness by Mahmoud Darwish

No one belong to the heart. Immersed in opening its chambers […] It alone stabs the rug of the wound made ready for crying and prays facing death.
