THE VOICE OF RESISTANCE AND PEACE

MAHMOUD DARWICH (1941-2008) - PALESTINE

A Palestinian writer born in 1941 in Al-Birwa and who died in a Houston hospital in 2008, Mahmoud Darwich is one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. His rich life and work embrace the history of Palestinian resistance. Deported in 1948 to a refugee camp in southern Lebanon, he joined the Communist Party and began publishing poems and articles that earned him five imprisonments and one house arrest. In 1970, he left Palestine. His poetry grew richer during his time in exile (Moscow, Cairo, Beirut, Tunis, Paris). Elected to the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), which he left after the Oslo Accords, he returned to live in Amman and Ramallah in 1995, where he continued his poetic work. With collections such as Palestine as Metaphor (1997) and The Earth is Narrow to Us (2000), Mahmoud Darwich's poems, intimate and committed, translate the specific identity questions of Palestinian refugees with a universal dimension.
