My Beloved Rises from Her Sleep
Love poems from the months before Darwish left Haifa for Cairo and then Beirut, where waking, dressing and crossing a room carry the weight of a political event. The woman and the land go on trading places as in the earlier books, but the tone has cooled: watchful, less declarative, aware that a departure is being arranged offstage. The last collection of the internal-exile years and the hinge into the long exile that followed.
