Abstract

In this rich collection of poetry, stories, and dramas, the editors attempt to illuminate the literary tradition of five Middle Eastern cultural groups. This anthology includes Arab, Armenian, Israeli, Persian, and Turkish literature, created primarily after the second world war. The authors of writings contained in the anthology range from Nobel Prize candidates to emerging talents whose works have been translated into English for the first time.
