    rock flight is a book-length poem that follows a personal and historical narrative to compose an understated yet powerful allegory of Palestine's occupation. The poem uses refrains of suffocation, rubble, and migratory bird patterns to address the realities of forced displacement, economic restrictions and surveillance technology that Palestinians face both within and outside Palestine. It depicts a restlessness brought about by dispossession, and a determination to find significance in fleeting objects and fragments. It looks to the literary form as an interactive experience, and the book as an object in flux, inviting the reader to embark on an exploration of space, while limited by the box-like confines of the page. Formally claustrophobic, the poem morphs into irony, declaring everything a box while refusing to exist within one.
    'rock flight is relentlessly potent. Merging resistance and poetry, Hasib Hourani writes back—against the "suffocating state" and imperial forces. Be ready to be transformed by Hourani's diasporic anticolonial poetics.' — Don Mee Choi
    'Here is a poetry of passion; a poetry of necessity; a poetry of survival, and a poetry-triumphant.' — Maxine Beneba Clarke

    In this volume a young woman grows through and beyond erotic love to reach the love known as agape. 
    Poems of This Century is a book that rises from the human to explore the divine. Reflecting the joy of youth and the wisdom of age, shaped by the pain of the human condition, this poetry takes the reader on a journey of hope. 
    This book, in parts only too human and scattered with wry and humorous observations, is nevertheless an attempt to describe that intensified experience of the mystical called by others, the cloud of unknowing, the heat of love, the lightness of being, ecstasy, the peak experience. . .

    This book is a companion to The Unwinding. It contains within images that tell stories, but it reads like a silent film. Each of the images is an invitation to dream.
    
    The tales of this silent edition are not pinned to the page by words. Each dreamer will find their own path, perhaps a new one each time they return.
    
    The illustrations are intended to inspire: there is space to draw and write, to paint dreams and stories, thoughts and verse, in new worlds, wherever your pen may guide you.

    O Reader, so special and dear!  
    Perhaps, in a corner, you sit today,  
    spirit broken, tears rolled, you sway.  
    A grain of sand, swept off, só confused;  
    struggling, searching, your heart suffered, bruised!  
    Many uncertainties weigh on your soul-  
    unexpected illness, violence, death a toll.  
    May poetic words ease your heart's silent plea-  
    heavenly comfort to help you be free!  
    To relax and smile through both joy and despair,  
    read Isaiah 43, find solace in prayer!  
    And may that tiny grain of silica becomes bright,  
    unfolding like quartz, bringing beauty and light!  
    Wishes from my heart, 
    Johanita
